cronjob dies when user password expires

I noticed for some time now on solaris 8 whenever our root or oracle password expires after 12 weeks the cronjob for the expired user will totally stop working, it will start working again once the password has been changed.

I wonder if anybody encountered this problem and knows of a fix other than extending expiry period.

this is the /var/cron/log

! bad user (oracle) Fri Feb 2 08:00:00 2007
< oracle 3769 c Fri Feb 2 08:00:00 2007 rc=1

this is the /etc/default/passwd
#ident "@(#)passwd.dfl 1.3 92/07/14 SMI"
MAXWEEKS=12
MINWEEKS=1
PASSLENGTH=8
