NIS Client Problem

I have nis+ master/replica servers (solaris 8) running in YP compatibility mode. The majority of my clients are hpux 11i. I want to be able to force the user to change his/her password upon first login but for some reason despite running passwd -r nisplus -f (nispasswd strongly discouraged apparently) on the nis+ master server. When the user logs in on a client (hpux 11i) the password expire criteria seem to get totally ignored and the user can log in without being challenged to change his/her provided password.

You might get more interest in this problem
on an HP-UX forum than on this Tru64 forum.
