Parameter documentation

When the user changes his or her password (but not when the password is set by the user administrator), a productive password is created. At the earliest, the user can then change this password can again after the period specified by login/password_change_waittime. The parameter login/password_expiration_time defines the period after which the system prompts the user to change his or her password. You can use this parameter to define the maximum period of time between the time of the last password change and the next logon with this password. After this period expires, the system displays the message "Initial password has expired" and the logon is rejected. We recommend that you set login/password_expiration_time to a smaller value than login/password_max_idle_productive.
