Operating Systems HP-UX To unblock the some audit scripts Post 302259775 by oracle_rajesh_k on Wednesday 19th of November 2008 01:37:12 AM

MySQL To unblock the some audit scripts

Dear Expects,

I am facing following discrepancies on our server.

a) When we give wrong root password three times in a row, the root account has been disabled.
b) System is forced to change the old password, whenever we tried to change the password of any of the OS user and for ROOT user also.

I feel, it is looking for some scripts or some script has been changed by oversight.
Please help us to resolve these issues at the earliest.
