Hello, I''d like to set up an expiration policy on my server but I''ve not found any way of doing it in the docs. I''d like to define for each user an expiration date. Has someone on this list set up something similar ? If so, what attribute have you used ? Thanks in advance, -- Mikael Kermorgant

I suppose you could use password expiration with no user password change - that would effectively lock out the user when their password expires.

I use cron and a special user with a restrictive ACI to lock old accounts. Not pretty, but hey...

Not pretty, but hey... >I thought about this solution but how do you check the expiration date ? As I want to put a specific life length for each user, I have to store an expiration date somewhere. Is there an existing atribute I could use for this ? Regards, -- Mikael Kermorgant
