Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Automatic password expiration
Generally, the easiest way to do this is to create a profile which puts a limit on PASSWORD_LIFE_TIME and then assign users that profile. The Oracle Administrator's Guide has a section on setting this up.

Subject: Automatic password expiration
The 8.1.7 Administrator's Guide suggests that the DBA should force users to change their passwords periodically. I cannot, however, find command in the SQL Reference which automates this function. Am I missing something?
Thanks,
Peter Schauss
