Repeatedly prompted to change password on every ssh login
I have a VPS with Ubuntu 18.04 on it.
On every successful login with user root, i get prompted:
Changing password for root.
(current) UNIX password:
Enter new UNIX password:
Retype new UNIX password:
root@ubuntu...*:~#
When I check the expiration date of the password:
root@ubuntu...*:~# chage -l root
Last password change : Jan 30, 2019
Password expires : never
Password inactive : never
Account expires : never
Minimum number of days between password change : 0
Maximum number of days between password change : 14600
Number of days of warning before password expires : 14
What is wrong? I want to choose a permanent password.

Ups moment.
The Reason for this, is another open ssh session all this time. By closing that, password reset requests stopped.
