Password Expiry check

[Andy Cole_1]

Hi all,

I implement trusted system and password aging on all the accounts.
But can the user itself check the expiry date of the password? any command? I know that /etc/shadow can check the password expiry for the users but that can only be accessed by root. Thanks

Hello

passwd -s

"passwd -s" will show the users own status.
According to man page on HP-UX 11.11 the output is:
name status mm/dd/yy min max warn

If you, as root, want to check all users you could f.ex. run:

ls -1 /home|grep -v "lost+found"|while read UNM;do passwd -s $UNM ;done

example output:
johndoe PS 03/18/04 7 175

or something similare (xargs will not work).
