Just created a new droplet (Debian 7/x64) and logged in via SSH. After login, before dropping to a shell, sshd asks to change my password, which I did, successfully. But after logging out and logging in again, it keeps doing so. Any clue on how to disable this? I’ve tried looking at /etc/ssh/sshd_config, /etc/login.defs, /etc/pam.d, and using usermod + chage, all to no avail.
