[Samba] how to apply "user must change password at next logon" and "expire password"
Hi people, i was experimenting with the pdbedit and i found the "user must change password at next logon". The thing i wan't able to make it work. I just can login and im not asked to change my password! How's that? The other thing.. i want to make my password expire after 30 days. I did this too, but it dosen't apply until i change my password one more time. I can make this if i want to apply this on my current samba with 300 users if i can't force them to change the password or just expire the password after 30 days. Any ideas? Tnxs in advance.

It all works for me with 3.0.11 and RHS3, OpenLDAP 2.2.24, after much experimentation. In fact, it all works *too* well and you have to Google to find Jerry carter's annotated code remarks to help change things back, when you've been frigging about and users never get to get to logon again until you've fixed your own mistakes, caused by lack of clearness in the man page. What are the following supposed to mean in clear English? - reset count minutes - disconnect time - user must logon to change password - bad lockout attempt --Tonni -- Nothing sucksseeds like a pigeon without a beak ... mail: tonye@billy.demon.nl http://www.billy.demon.nl They'll love us, won't they?
