Hi Ruth, thanks for your reply.
I tried that command too - for some reason some of the sql*plus clients didn't like it, and the users would unsuccessfully try to change their password, over and over. I gave up and removed that 'password expire' clause, reset their password and again was hoping against hope that they would indeed change their passwords.
You're right, time for a tar. Hopefully I'll get the 'expert' who 'helped' me this morning with our downed production database. <smirk>
Thanks again
Lisa

Subject: Re: user password expire
Lisa,
When you create or alter a user using OEM there is an option to expire the password now. The command is 'alter user USERNAME password expire;' but if you try to look it up in the doc's there is nothing.
Sorry I couldn't be of real help. Enter an iTAR in Metalink and see what the 'experts' have to say.
Regards,
Ruth
