similar to: Password expiry

A user with the X (password doesn't expire) flag on his account was forced to change his password because it expired on a system with pdbedit -P'maximum password age' account policy "maximum password age" description: Maximum password age, in seconds (default: -1 => never expire passwords) What's going on? why is samba ignoring this and expiring passwords anyways?

I've just found out that Samba (rather correctly) implements a nice and low password expiry date through the tdbsam backend, and I believe the "maximum password age" value. However, I can't, for the life of me, actually /set/ this thing. I've tried this: # pdbedit -u <username> -r -P "maximum password age" -C 100 And without the -r, and with various

I AM PARVEEN KUMAR. I HAVE CONFIGURE SAMBA AS A PDC WITH TDBSAM DATABASE. I WANT TO APPLY A PASSWORD AGING FOR MY DOMAIN users. FOR THAT I HAVE USED PDBEDIT COMMAND. root# pdbedit -P "min password length" -C 8 account policy value for min password length was 5 account policy value for min password length is now 8 root# pdbedit -P "password history" -C 4 account policy

Hello, I want to set the expiry date for passwords for all users with one command. As --pwd-must-change-time only works for a single user and policy settings are not applied after a change, I was wondering how to solve this. Is the only way to write a script which runs "pdbedit --pwd-must-change-time..." for every user? greets Jimmy -- Andreas "Jimmy"

Hi guys/girls, How are you ? I've been struggling to get my users' passwords to expire. My configuration is samba-3.0 running with the standard smbpasswd back-end. Everything that I can find on the web says I should set the following to expire my users passwords after 28 days.: pdbedit -v -P 'minimum password age' -C 300 pdbedit -v -P 'maximum password age' -C 2419200

Hi All Have recently moved from a machine running 2.2 to a new machine running 3.0.10-1. I've just converted the smbpasswd database to tdbsam as I understand password ageing etc does not work with smbpasswd. I've set the line 'passdb backend = tdbsam' in the smb.conf, restarted the daemon and now I'm trying to force a user account to have to change his password the next time

I have found that when passwords are reset from a windows machine, the default password expiry period is around 40 days. I would like to change this to say 90 days, but have been unable to find a way. I tried the option "password expire time" but testparm doesn't seem to recognise it. There is nothing in the official Samba How-to about this. Has anyone managed to set thier

Yesterday, I've moved all my samba users from a redhat 9 (i386) system to a Centos 5 (x86_64) system. This runs samba-3.0.25-7. The system uses NIS authentication, no shadow files. Now all my Windows users have accounts that expire today! Strangely, if I do a: # pdbedit -L -v mk I get: Password last set: Tue, 18 May 2004 15:04:30 CEST Password can change: Tue, 18 May 2004 15:04:30

Hi guys, I'm battling to understand how the Samba4 user password expiry seems to tie in together and was hoping this could be clarified by someone for me please? Currently I have the following Samba4 domain policies in place... [root at headoffice ~]# samba-tool domain passwordsettings show Password informations for domain 'DC=abc-ho,DC=local' Password complexity: on Store plaintext

Thanks for the answer Marcel, I did get them confused. Any ideas why then that my passwords don't seem to be expiring even well after 60 days and despite having the domain policy enforcing password expiry? Thanks. Regards. Neil Wilson.

Hi, i have configured a Samba PDC based on idealx.org. now, whenever i set the sambaMustChangePassword flag to 0, then from the subsequent logon, there is a popup urge me for changing password. now, the problem is after i have changed the password, the sambaMustChangePassword is set to 2147483647(unix timestamp), which if i converted it into human readable format, it will be 2038 year,

Hi All. I'm pleased to report that as of yesterday, OpenSSH -current now supports forced changes of expired passwords on most platforms, and bug #14 is now closed. Specifically, AIX's native authentication, BSD Authentication and shadow passwords with the expiry field are supported. The password is changed by exec'ing /usr/bin/passwd in the session. Interested parties should

Hi Elliot, I couldn't find anything related to smbpasswd expiry. Since u have "unix password sync = true", just a wild guess, if u could turn off password ageing in unix passwd file (man passwd for more detail) and see if problem persists.

Hi all, I have a couple of Samba 4 DCs on my network and I created a new service account LDAPReader on my DCs that my non-Samba third-party services such as Redmine successfully use to access AD via the LDAPS protocol. I have a couple of questions that relate to having service account of this nature implemented in Samba and I wondered if the group could possibly provide some advice? 1)

I took Markus Friedl's advice and set up a KbdintDevice for Kerberos password authentication/expiry. It took me a bit to wrap my head around privsep, but I think it's working properly (code stolen shamelessly from FBSD's PAM implementation :->). The hardest part was working out how to get the interaction between krb5_get_init_creds_password() (along with the prompter) to work

I''ve been Googling this question for the past few hours, and I think it''s time I simply ask this question myself. I just made the switch from Rails 3.2 to Rails 4. I''m trying to make sure I''m as up-to-speed as possible on security issues, and I''m concerned about sessions right now. It looks like Rails 4 has moved away from supporting really

Hello there, I run Samba 2.2.12 on RH7.3 acting as a domain controller. Until recently this has just had W2K clients connecting to it with no problems. I have now started adding WinXP clients, which have produced an issue regarding password expiry. Every now and again these XP clients - just after logging into the domain - state to the user that their password will expire in 14 days. They can
