I'm testing PWD management in Ora 8i (8.1.5) running on NT4.
I created a pwd profile and assigned it to a user (User X) when I created the user. It had all default values (as shown in DBA_PROFILES) except PASSWORD_LIFE_TIME which I set to 30. I wanted to check the expiration so I reduced this to 1 day using the ALTER PROFILE command. I did this logged in as SYSTEM.
When I logged in as this user I got the error msg:
ERROR:
ORA-28002: the password will expire within 24855 days
Ok - I hadn't set the PASSWORD_GRACE_TIME parameter. When I did set this to 5 days I still got the error message as before.
Also - although SQL*Plus still says that I have connected (which is right, the error is only a warning of the grace period) when I issue a SHOW USER command it still shows me connected as SYSTEM - the user I was logged in as before I connected as User X.
However - I am actually connected as User X as I have no SYSTEM privileges when I try and use them.
I'm confused.

That's an Oracle bug, you will find the explanation and the workaround in Metalink Note 50003.1

Thanks Julian - I'll look into it.
Some additional Info:
Running a SQL*Plus report that connects as the user with the expired password
produces errors:
ERROR
ORA-28002: the password will expire within 24854 days
Connected to an idle instance.
SP2-0642: SQL*Plus internal error state 2090, context 0:0:0
Unsafe to proceed
Then logging direct into SQL*Plus (SQLPLUSW.EXE)- same User Id & Pwd
And I get...
ERROR
ORA-28002: the password will expire within 24854 days
SP2-0614: Server version too low for this feature.
(???????????????????- JM)
Does this mean Password Profile Management is not available in 8.1.5.0.0 ?

Julian,
That note on Metalink told me nothing - it was an explanation of the Grace Period error message. Any other pointers? Whats this bug?

I've given you wrong reference: check 75556.996
