Testing the Password Expiry Time

We are using Oracle-Application-Server-10g/10.1.2.0.2 on Linux. We have prevented the username "portal" password from expiring with its default expiry time of 60 days by changing the password expiry time to 99999999999999999 with the Oracle Directory Manager/Oracle Internet Directory (OID). We have stopped and started the services in Portal just in case it was necessary to do so in order for the changes to take effect.
Some questions:
1. Does making the above change affect ONLY the "portal" password expiry time? We noticed that other usernames/passwords created by portal are still expiring at 60 days. If it only affects the portal username, how do we change the password expiry time for users already created within the system?
2. Does the new password expiry time setting affect only the new users created after the change is made?
3. Does anyone know what will happen if I the password expiry time is set to "0"? Basically, we'd like to set it so that the password does not expire.
I suppose we could test all of this by letting the passwords expire (including portal's) but we are trying to avoid that since we are in a production environment.
I would appreciate any input anyone may have.

To respond to question 3 : if the value is 0, then
the password does not expire. By default, user
passwords never expire.It is correct that ...... 'If the value is 0, then the password does not expire.'
<b>Incorrect:</b> ...... 'By default, user passwords never expire.'
Please see the following link for the default password policy settings.
http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B15904_01/manage.1012/b14082/pwdpolicies.htm#i1047430
"The default password policy for Oracle Internet Directory enforces:
    * Password expiration in 60 days
    * Account lockout after 10 login failures. Except for the super user account, all accounts remain locked for a duration of 24 hours unless the passwords are reset by the directory administrator. A user account stays locked even after the lockout duration has passed unless the user binds with the correct password "

    Thanks for the suggestion, Chris.  I actually did not resolve the issue which is why i did not post an answer. 
    it turns out that my iphone seems to default to an incorrect User ID (it defaults to an @me account, which is not something that i have ever used). 
    even when i change the User ID in my settings for the iTunes store, it still appears when i attempt to get updates for my existing apps.  however, it does seem to use the correct ID when i attempt to purchase new apps.
    If someone actually had an answer to correct this, i would love to update my existing apps.

    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
    Select the login keychain from the list on the left side of the Keychain Access window. If your default keychain has a different name, select that.
    If the lock icon in the top left corner of the window shows that the keychain is locked, click to unlock it. You'll be prompted for the keychain password, which is the same as your login password, unless you've changed it.
    Right-click or control-click the login entry in the list. From the menu that pops up, select
              Change Settings for Keychain "login"
    In the sheet that opens, uncheck both boxes, if not already unchecked.
    From the menu bar, select
              Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ First Aid
    If the box marked
              Keep login keychain unlocked
    is not checked, check it.
    Select
              Keychain Access ▹ Keychain First Aid
    from the menu bar and repair the keychain. Quit Keychain Access.

  • Sign in to itunes store will not disappear and the whole IPad will not let me go into other screens till this pop up goes away.  I have entered the password several times and still will not disappear.  Turned the IPad on and off but the pop up remain

    FIrst try a soft reset by holding down the home & sleep/wake buttons until the Apple logo appears then let go & let the iPad boot up normally. 
    If that doesn't help then to make sure you have a strong internet connection.
    Try resetting Network Settings
    Settings->General->Reset->Reset Network Settings,
    You won't lose any data but will have to log back into your wifi networks.
    Once logged back in and when the pop-up appears, try entering your password again.

  • Why does the iTunes AppleID system refuse to work properly without the need to reset the password every time I open iTunes for use?

    Alright so here is the issue. When I first started using iTunes I created my AppleID. I locked it in to remember my password and authorize my computer so that I would NEVER HAVE TO ENTER IT AGAIN. So years pass, no problem. Then "ITUNES 11" come on everyone lets upgrade or you can't proper use the iTunes Store. Seriously it wouldn't let me access the store. Go Figure. So I upgrade simple right? No. It really isn't when iTunes 11 rolled out it was riddled with minor bugs that made the experience annoying so I did a rollback and live without the store for awhile.
    About a year passes and I try again this time upgrading iTunes through a COMPLETE fresh install, again I did what had done the first time I logged my AppleID and reauthorized my computer. Hurrah other than getting use to the new UI it ran perfectly. Yes Finally! Right? Again.... No. No more than 2 or 3 software updates later suddenly my password for my AppleID is incorrect I was like "Okay?" and re-entered it thinking the big update cleared my settings.
    Wrong Password please reset password to continue using the iTunes store.
    I was like okay maybe the user agreement change and we all need to reset passwords and re-accept the EUA. So I go through the process to create a new password successfully and reset my AppleID in iTunes with the new password. Come back a few weeks later it happens again this time I enter my new password and what do I get?
    Wrong Password please reset password to continue using the iTunes store.
    So I first do a repair install to my iTunes than reset my password this time NOT setting it to remember password. Great everything works fine again password even matched my Home CompID so that I could NEVER lose it well come a few days later I try to use the store and what happens?
    Wrong Password please reset password to continue using the iTunes store.
    to try to make my Long story a little shorter....
    This has been going on for the better part of 3 years I have almost completely dropped iTunes which has the better store library for Goggle Play Music who's store library isn't even a third the size iTunes has because their system works and my log-in is my e-mail. I repeatedly completely uninstalled iTunes and wiped it from my registry in hope a clean install would fix the problem but it never does.
    My OS is Vista Home Premium Edition 32-bit and no picking on my OS I been working to get a new computer but that isn't happening anytime soon so I work with what I got.

    Even removing the .xml files doesn't make a difference. Also, I now installed another update of iTunes, but still having the same problem, and this time there are no .xml files or preference files whatsoever in the Application Data and Local Settings\Application Data iTunes folders. It seems like for some reason iTunes is unable to create these. What should I do?

  • TS1398 How do I get my iPad to automatically connect to the wifi without me having to put in the password every time?

    I have set up 6 iPads to work in my school. It took a while to get there but I got there!
    My problem now is that I don't seem to be able to get them to connect to the wifi automatically without having to put the password in every time. I got the first one to do it but I did that one a while ago and can't seem to remember what I did differently!!
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Thanks

    turn off all of the ipads, (not put them to sleep but turn them off) then unplug your Wi-Fi router for 2 mins. Plug it back in and when all the lights are (green or blue, depends on who makes the router) turn on one ipad and then connect it, wait 3 mins and turn on the other and connect it, do this for each iPad and it should fix the problem.

  • HT201250 Why do i have to use the password for time capsule every time i start my computer

    Why do I have to use thr password for time capsuel every time I start my imac?

    With hindsight, the previous response I got from Apple was just a way of shelving the problem.
    Having just had to reset my password after another 3 months, I contacted Apple again, and it happened that the senior advisor whom the phone agent consulted had had exactly the same problem as me, and had found that iTunes could fix it.  However when I spoke to iTunes they told me I needed to speak to Apple ID account security.  The Apple ID account security representative spoke to a senior adviser, then told me that it would be fixed after I reset my password.  However I am not convinced that anything was actually done, so I may be back here in another 3 months ...
    To modify Roger's advice, the solution I was given is: go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; select 'All Products and Services' in the first column, 'iTunes' in the second column, 'iTunes Store' in the third column, then "Account Management" and "Apple ID account security", then "Talk to Apple support now". A complication is that the "Talk to Apple support now" option only appears when UK English is selected.  So you either need to select UK at the top, or find another way of making phone contact (the email link just went back to the person in iTunes)!

  • Check the password change time

    Hi
    a strange request came, a request came to find the time when the user had changed the password
    i'm in confusion
    any answers

    Check PTIME in user$. If you are using a password management policy, you can also check user_history$.

  • I keep getting a message that says invalid Id or password, I have changed the password many time and still cant transfer my book Help!!!

    I downloaded a book to my computer when i go to transfer it to itunes i get a message that says Could not authorize this computer because either your user name or password are invalid. Help. I have changed the password and still the same message.

    Ok....so I have found a work around....if not a complete solution.
    I'm not sure if deleting your music, uninstalling ITunes and reinstalling and adding your music back will actually affect it but I tried it again. Started from scratch.
    I checked the box for "Manually manage music and videos"
    Then I moved my music to phone via drag and drop, usually just boxing a row of albums at a time.
    I went back into my Iphone and began the sync. The message popped up, "1 Item could not be synced" and the sync stopped. At that point, I just clicked sync again and it started back up again. It took a few go's but eventually I got all my music on my phone.
    Ironically enough, the only songs that wouldn't sync were songs that I had actually purchased from Itunes....kinda odd

  • I've update ios5 and downloaded cloud.  I've had to change the password 3 times and it still won't recognise it, on both ipad and iphone. Is this a common thing?

    I've just updated to ios5 and downloaded icloud. I have had to change my password 3 times already because both my iphone and ipad say it's wrong. They jam and I have to turn them off to clear it.. Cloud is starting to turn into a fog for me.

    The store thing might be a good option, although at the risk of sounding too doom-and-gloom, I imagine that stores will be mobbed with this type of thing.
    And I am completely with you about the password consequences. The more password changes, the harder it is to remember them (maybe it's a "benign plot" to get people to create stronger passwords)
    I regret "jumping on this" before they worked out the kinks. It feels very beta.
