Solaris 10 - jumpstart - Root password reset

Hi,

I am using jumpstart ( jass 4.2 ) to install Solaris 10 and observed that after the installation system forcing the password to be changed. This way it becomes interactive and solving my unattended installation purpose.

I have added the finish script to assign the root password and log shows that it executed it with no errors. And even when the first login appears, it accepts the password that assigned through finish script and immediately it prompts for the "New Password".

Any clues...

thanks in advance.

Hello,

The problem might be from the password aging being set by Jass.

You can see in Drivers/finish.init that the JASS_AGING_MAXWEEKS is set.

Depending on its value,you could be forced to choose a new password.

To avoid this, simply set the value to whatever you want in the user.init file.

Best regards,

Fred.
