Are you expiring passwords are expiring accounts? This doesn't apply to you, but maybe there's an equiv in linux:
From FreeBSD pw(8)
USER LOCKING The pw utility supports a simple password locking mechanism for users; it works by prepending the string `*LOCKED*' to the beginning of the pass- word field in master.passwd to prevent successful authentication. The lock and unlock commands take a user name or uid of the account to lock or unlock, respectively. The -V, -C, and -q options as described above are accepted by these commands. --- Then just write a cron job that locks expired accounts / expired passwords. ~BAS On Thu, 17 Nov 2005, Mark Tunnell wrote:
rlm_unix probably doesn't look at the expiry time of the password.

Is there an alternative mechanism I could employ that does?
