Query password expiration?

Richard Ross — Wed, 07 Feb 2007 12:19:41 GMT

Running 11.11 Trusted server and looking for a way to determine if a userid's password has been expired (Not lifetime). I do not see this as a field in 'getprpw'

Thanks

Shalom,

The report from passwd -sa may be helpful.

This looks very minimalistic ..

I was looking more for pulling info out of getprpwent, but looks like fd_expire is equal to '0' on all users.

Peter .. Thanks .. This looks very promising ..

I did make one change. I changed '$PWDAYSLEFT -gt 1' to '-gt 0' so I can locate the userids whose passwords have already expired.

PWCHGDATE="$(echo 0d${SECS2EXP}=Y \
| adb \
| cut -c 3-13 \
| awk '{print $2,$3,$1}')"
if [ $PWDAYSLEFT -gt 0 ]
then
print "Password expires in $PWDAYSLEFT days ($PWCHGDATE)"
else
print "Password expired"
fi

Thanks again
