reuse old password

user13667036Apr 5 2013 — edited Apr 5 2013

Hello,
OS: windows 7 (personal laptop), ORACLE version : 11gR2

USER (sys, system, BI, SCOTT, HR) password expired and needed to reset it. However I would like to keep my old password... mostly for convenience, but also different applications (e.g. oracle data miner...) connecting to DB needed to be reset, which I am reluctant to do. I issued the command "SQL> ALTER profile DEFAULT limit password_life_time unlimited" after logging as sysdba. But still can't replace the new password by my old password. How to fix it?

Thanks,
Sourabh
