Re: passwd history
Not a good news.
It's not possible to find when the user changed the password without a bit of scripting. Even with scripting cannot tell you exactly when the user changed the password. You can probably enable debugging with PAM (by adding 'debug' at the end of passwd line in pam.conf) but that can only log an entry in syslog.log but do not keep the history anywhere.
For trusted system, the password data is kept under /tcb structure under seperate files for each user.

Re: passwd history
on an untrusted system, no easy way. Obviously trusting a system is the answer; but implementing a force change will give you some indication by utilising the information in the password file itself in untrusted mode. Have a look at the 'man 4 passwd' man page. Some scripting skills will assist.

Re: passwd history
In /etc/default you can have a file called security
/etc/default/security
In that file you can define how many times a password can be changed before re-used and such.
In order to calculate that stuff, the data must be stores somewhere.
I'm unable to recall whether thats a trusted system feature or not. Here is a thread.

Solutionlogins -x will give you desired output. here is few lan form "man logins"
-x Display extended information about selected users. This extende
information includes home directory, login shell and password
aging data, each on its own line. Password information consists
of password status (PS for valid password, LK for locked and NP
for no password) and, if a password is present, date of last
change, required number of days between changes, and number of
days allowed between changes. In the case of non-trusted
systems, the date of last change will be the latest Thursday
since the change.
