7. At the When password should expire prompt, type the password expiration
date (number of days). To configure password without an expiration date, type 0.
When password should expire? ([0-never]/number of days) : 100
Note: For improved security, it is strongly recommended to use an expiration date
for all passwords.
8. At the Prevent too often password changes prompt, type the minimum interval
between password changes (number of days). For not limiting the password
change time interval, type 0.
Prevent too often password changes? ([0-no]/number of days) : 1
Note: For improved security, it is strongly recommended to limit password
changes to not more than 1 change per day. This limitation affects only password
change operations performed by users themselves. The administrative super-user
(root) may modify the password of any user regardless of any time limitations.
9. At the New Password prompt, type the new password.
New Password:*******
10. At the Re-enter new Password prompt, type the new password again.
