You should use the chage -m 1 -M 45 -W 5 jackrusl command to set password age limits for this user account.
Key Takeaway: The chage command changes the number of days between password changes and the date of the last password change. The system uses this information to determine when a user must change the password. The chage command is restricted to the root user, except for the -l option. The -m option with this command specifies the value of minimum number of days between password changes. The -M option specifies the maximum number of days during which a password is valid.
