Portal Users Passwords expiring

In 9.02 it seems my portal users passwords seem to expire for no reason. When it happens, I have to go in and manually re-set their passwords. Is this a bug or is there some place to control this.

Set the number of seconds before password expiration that the directory server
sends the user a warning. By default the "Password Expiration Warning"
parameter is set to 0, which disables the expiration warning.
Also if the users need to be able to login after the password expiration set
the "Number of Grace Logins after Password Expiration" parameter to a
number greater than 0.
Change these parameters in the following manner:
1. Start the Oracle Directory Manager from the home of the iAS Infrastructure
2. Login as the OID administrator, i.e. orcladmin
3. Click on the + on the left of Password Policy Management
4. Click on your password policy to change the settings on the right pane
5. Set the Password Expiration Warning in seconds i.e. 259200 for 3 days.
6. Set the Number of Grace Logins after Password Expiration to a greater than 0
value i.e. 1. This will add a last opportunity for the user after his/her
password expired.

SLD Disconnection due to User Password Expiration

Hi,
Our Portal runs with NW04 SP17 and we've implemented security parameters so users password will expire after 30 days.
As we're developing many Webdynpro applications that connects to backend R/3 Systems we're using SLD Jco connections.
But once a month our applications stops working as the SLD connection users password expires.
This is a very big problem for us. We don't want to change users password every month and make our application users unhappy.
Any idea? or solution purposal?

Hi,huseyin,
We've met this problem now.Can you tell me how to solve this problem by the "technical user" type in UME?
Thank you~!

"user password expiration" for every 30 days for the NW2004S systems

Dear all,
We are using NW2004s with BI and DI,EP. We set the parameter "user password expiration" for every 30 days for the NW2004S systems(dual stack).
In the system users SAPJSF,NWDI_CMSADM,J2EE_ADMIN,NWDI_ADM, ADMINITRATOR is also getting change once in every month(30 days),So that we need to change the password and it should get update in the visual admin and config tools. Some time this arising problem. Is there any way to avoid the password expire for this particular user in the system .
Note :Password expire parameter should keep compulsory in the system
So Please guide us to resolve those problem.
Thanks in advance

Hi!
I don't suggest you to change J2EE_ADMIN password. instead you should logon with your user.
Anyway.... please find below a small program to control passwords validity. for some users is very usefull.
REPORT ZS_ALTERA_DATA_PASS                     .
tables:usr02.
select-options : s_users for usr02-bname.
parameter:       p_data like usr02-bcda1 default sy-datum.
update usr02 set bcda1 = p_data
             where bname in s_users.
if sy-subrc eq 0.
MESSAGE 'Password validity changed' type 'S'.
else.
MESSAGE 'ERROR changing password validity' type 'E'.
endif.

User password expiration

Hello.
It seems that passwordExpirationTime LDAP attribute doesn't work at all. I can add it to a user entry but it has no effect, no matter what value it has. Do we have to set any configuration value in order to active it? Is there any other way to achieve some kind of "user password expiration" feature?
Thank you very much.

Hi,
in respect to password aging, the following two enhancement requests are open :
on Messaging : 12093863: SUNBT4538996 PASSWORD AGING SUPPORT
on Convergence : 12251399: SUNBT6763009 CONVERGENCE LOGIN SHOULD WARN IF PASSWARD EXPIRES SOON
The above is also mentioned in the knowledge document :
Does Messaging Server Or Convergence Support Password Aging Policy ? (Doc ID 1474404.1)
On 12093863, this feature will be implemented in the messaging patch-28. There is no news available yet from the Convergence side on 12251399.

PSWConnector user password expired

Hello,
We have installed DSEE 7.0 & ISW 6.0 on Solaris 10.
Active Directory is running on Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise Edition (64-bit)
We have one way syncronization (LDAP -> AD)
We learned that password for user "PSWConnector" expired, and now getting following in ISW audit.log file...
"failed to open connection to ldap://ldap-server, error(49): Invalid credentials, reason: password expired!."
We are trying to figure out how to reset this users password or how to "un-expire" this users password.
Thank you,

Just use any ldap browser to connect to your directory server using "cn=Directory Manager" to login and then update the PSWConnector user's password, or use DSCC.
Alternatively, use ldapmodify, run the ldapmodify command with the arguments as shown and then type in the text that follows but substitute with appropriate values for your environment. Then press Control+d when you finished
ldapmodify -h <hostname> -p <port> -D"cn=directory manager" -w <password>
dn: uid=PSWConnector,<BASE DN>
changetype: modify
replace: userPassword
userPassword: <new password>
You might want to add a password policy specifically for PSWConnector that has no password expiry

Communications user password expires

Hi,
The password of our communications user (ZCONTRANS) always expires/deactivated.
How can I set tha password of this particular user not to expire?
We could not chage the login/password_expiration_time parameter because we need dialog users password to expire every 90 days (for audit requirement).
thanks,
kbas

HI,
use the usertype 'SYSTEM' instead of usertype 'Communication'. Passwords of 'System'-users do not
expire. (the usertype can be set in SU01->tab 'logondata')

Portal user password reset!

I for some reason I reset the Portal (DB Schema) user password and i'm not able to get into the portal page!
please help..
here is the err i get ---
http://<host>:7778/pls/portal/
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /pls/portal/portal.home on this server.
Oracle HTTP Server/1.3.22 Server at <host name> Port 7778

Ankur,
Its very much possible to have an automatted job which will read a text file from a portal content path and reset the user password. You can implement KM Scheduler task using NWDS.
Let your KM Scheduler task have the logic to read a file. Use UME API to reset the password for the given user.
Deploy this KM Scheduler task into portal from NWDS using portal admin user name and password.
Navigate to portal and schedule the deployed task under System admin -> System config -> Knowledge management -> content Management -> Global services -> Scheduler tasks -> Schedulers -> You should be able to see your deployed scheduler here -> just select the link and set the time period -> by this way you can run a job at any time like everyday at 11A.M , every one hour, ever 10 minutes etc.
I remember thr is blog on SDN reg the scheduler. Please search in SDN.

Cannot get user password expiration status with Jco 2.1

I am using Jco 2.1. Is it possible to get the status of the user's password (expired or not) using Jco, or is there any BAPI which can do this task. I get an exception in Jco when the user is locked or does not have any access to the respective function groups, but no exceptions in this case. It allows the user to conenct to SAP even when the password has expried.
In the code, I am using JCo Client connect and disconnect. It connects sucessfully, even when the password has expired in SAP.
Many thanks in advance. Any pointers to this issue is appreciated.
Regards,
Siva

Get current portal user password?

Is it possible to get the current portal user's password? If so, I need the pl/sql api to accomplish this.

Hi there,
I was looking for the same thing but as I understood it is saved in a HASH format and their is NO way to decrypt it.
The thing I do now is storing the password in a selfmade table besides the SSO tables for administrative use.

Is there a way to find if the novel user's password has expired?? Is there an api method of netwin32.dll that will do the trick?
I am writing a program where i want to change the novell user's
password. This i want to do only if the password has expired. The
trouble is to find whether the password has expired or not. I found
something regarding the attribute Password Expiration Time. Is that
the right way to determine the password expiration? Is there any other
way i can find this out?
How can i user NWDSGetAttrVal to get the password expiration value?
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks,
Rohit

I find this sort of thing is easier with LDAP to the eDirectory LDAP server rather than API calls, with the advantage that the resulting solution is cross platform...
You might find some ideas in this php web script on how you can interrogate LDAP about upcoming expired acconts, but I've never got into setting passwords that way - there are some obvious security issues to thin through... expusers | Novell User Communities

User password expires everyday

Hi,
For only one of the user we support, the system prompts to change the password when logging-in first time for the day. After changing, the password is fine for working all day. This has to be repeated again the next day the user logs-in. Has anyone come across a similar situation?
Thank you.

Hello Mani,
you need to check usr02 before and after the change of the password. I suspect, that somehow the pwd gets the 'initial' status every day. Especially have an eye on the fields ltime and pwdinitial.
Also the change logs of the user can give a clue. If there are no change logs but the table content gets changed w/o user/admin interaction, check for coding updating usr02 w/o using standard bapis/FMs.
good luck,
Bernhard

Can not start OC4J_BI_FORM after PORTAL user password change

We changed PORTAL password by going top sqlplus and OAS. Thinking it will make changes at both places. Now we see that when we start OAS. OC4J_BI_FORM does not start???

Please refer to section 6.4 Changing OracleAS Metadata Repository Schema Passwords and Table 6-2 Methods for Changing Oracle Metadata Repository Schema Passwords in the Oracle® Application Server Administrator's Guide, located at http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/appserver.html (Click View Library under Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2.0.2))
You should use the Application Server Control Console to change the password. After you change the password, restart Oracle HTTP Server and OC4J_Portal: In the home page for the instance, select HTTP_Server and OC4J_Portal and click Restart.
Regards,
Pete
