[389-users] Password expiration warning

[Andrew Kerr]

I am hoping to implement password expirations using 389.  389 is used
for system level auth across a few hundred redhat5 servers, but is also
used for web auth, and primarily so for less technical users (access to
Wiki, internal accounting systems, etc).

 

What I'm struggling with is how users will be notified of their upcoming
password expiration if they don't directly log in to a Unix box.  389
has a check box to "send warning X days before password expires", but I
can't find any documentation on what exactly that means.  How are they
notified - via email?  If not, is there already a script out in the wild
that will scan my LDAP for upcoming expirations (via cron) and email
notifications to users?

 

Thanks!
