ASA 5520 IPS question.

Hi, I just got my ASA 5520 firewall with (ASA SSM-20 module) couple weeks ago, and I am trying to configure IPS features but I getting this problem:

This is output from CLI:

-------------

Asa5520fw# session 1

Opening command session with slot 1.

Connected to slot 1. Escape character sequence is 'CTRL-^X'.

login: cisco

Password:

You are required to change your password immediately (password aged)

Changing password for cisco

(current) UNIX password:

Authentication token manipulation error

Remote card closed command session. Press any key to continue.

------------

I used default cisco / cisco and tried to change to something else or complicate password but keep getting this error.

Thanks,

the issue maybe related to the length of the password. it must be at least 8-digit long and not a dictionary word.

Also, be sure to use the cisco password again as the "Current UNIX Password"....

Thanks, the "changing password for cisco" throw me off.

though is asking new password...
