openssh unix dev - Aug 2006 - Question about .... password has expired

I have a question.

I got this messages in my Solaris 8 Sun Fire V880 Unix Server.

messages:Jul 28 10:28:18 cnt-sun-v880 sshd[353]: [ID 800047 auth.info] User root
password has expired (password aged)

I has happened twice, since this software was installed. 

Any help, to solve this problem

What is the problem exactly? There is no question in your mail.

I hate to state the obvious: The message is generated by sshd because
the root password has expired ie. not been changed within the time
limit specified in the system policy set by the system administrator.

Also, if this is Sun's sshd (as opposed to portable OpenSSH) your
problem (whatever it is) should be reported to Sun instead.
