Hi,
	Our last Sys Admin put password aging on out PTX 1.3 system. We want to back it out. I also want to rid the system of the /etc/shadow file usage
if this was a SysAdmin option. Is there a way to do this short of cutting
and pasting all the password fields from the shadow file to the passwd file?
And if /etc/shadow is mandatory now, what number do I change to make 
password expiration never occur?

Thanks in advance.
Kyle
