David, thanks a lot for the pointers.
I was able to fix the problem I was having, but I was
still curious to see how user profiles are mapped to
the DB structure.

Yes, I use HSQL for now. I looked at the manageProd
scripts - they invoke the HSQL DB Manager application.
It is useful, but I am not completely sure which
tables I should be updating... I looked at the DB
tables and the most promising , in my opinion , is the
'SECURITY_CREDENTIAL' table. Is the 'value' field the
one that contains passwords? I could not find a
'password' field in any other table ... Also, would
setting the 'update_required' field to FALSE be enough
to stop password update requests from J2? I did not
try it yet, since your next suggestion worked as a
quick fix, but I would like to try this approach to
exempt only selective users from updating their
passwords :)

I assume you meant the
portal/src/webapp/WEB-INF/assembly/pipelines.xml file
- it did contain the Valve you described.
Commenting out the passwordCredentialValve did work -
no user is prompted to change his password anymore.
Thanks!
Marina
P.S. just a side note - I use the SQLExplorer plugin
for Eclipse to work with DBs directly - it seems to be
much more user-friendly than the HSQL Manager :) -
IMHO, of course
