Setting an account expiration to 'never' in the CLI sets a date of 02/06/2106

symptom

When running the following CLI command, a hard date of 02/06/2106 is set for the Account expires date instead of setting the expiration to Never:

EA USER userid UPDATE EXPIRES:NEVER

This issue has been corrected in Directory and Resource Administrator (DRA) version 6.50 and later.  In DRA 6.50 and later setting the expiration date of an account to Never correctly checks the Never radio button on the property page of the user account.  To resolve this problem download the latest version of DRA by accessing the following URL:
