Please say that I undrstood this correctly !
In this situation, we are using Samba with pam authentication, and we are
using the /etc/passwd file only, I mean configured in the PAM config
file...
And if you set a password expiaration in the Unix password file, then
through PAM,
the Windows Client will get that he has to change the password ?
I think I'm a bit confused :)
Really what is the way step by step to be able to get a message in the
Windows client when the password has expired in the Samba domain !
We have read a lot mail about this issue in the last 2 weeks, and all of
them suggested
something, but I think not I'm the only one who has this problem, and who
is confused abou this !
Thanks in advance !
Best Regards !

Just remember that Samba will only honer these values when built
--with-pam, 'enable pam restrictions = yes' and you have a correctly
configured /etc/pam.d/samba file
