Password Expired - cfmupdatenode issue
Afternoon All
Has anyone seen this type of thing before. Basically we had an issue where an ID that has db2 connect access tried to make the db connection and got an " Attempt to establish connection failed with security reason "1"
("PASSWORD EXPIRED"). SQLSTATE=08001" error.
This I know can happen normally however when we checked there was no issue with the ID at all. We checked the connection & it worked fine and a check on the last update to the password showed it was more than 2 months ago since the last time it was changed.
-perl -le 'print scalar localtime(shift);' 1192262598

What looks to have happened is that we have a cfmupdatenode cron job running at 10 mins past each hour. This was the time that the connection was attempted.
So my question is if passwd & other files in the /etc system are passed out from the cws can this affect normal ID connections where a password is needed. So was this just very unlucky to conflict or can something be done to avoid this in the future.
Cheers
Phil
