Zimbra User Password

Post by imarks001 »

I have my server, Centos 4.4 running 4.5 GA, set to enforce password expiration for local users. The problem I just ran into is when trying to su - zimbra, I'm getting prompted to change the zimbra password because it has expired. I never had a password set for the account, so I was wondering what would happen/break if I was to set one?
Thanks

Set it to whatever you want; you should probably exempt this from the password aging, though, since that's going to break things next time it expires.

Dear all!
Anyone who give me the cause of the issue.

When I su - zimbra, it requires me to enter the current password but i don't set password for zimbra before.

If you're using Ubuntu/Mac, you may need to

sudo /bin/bash

su - zimbra


If it's still asking, then you need to fix your sudoers file. :)
