Expired unix system passwords

[James Smallacombe]

Has anyone had any luck getting FreeRadius to recognise expired Linux 
system passwords as defined in /etc/login.defs ?  sshd and imapd honors 
it, but FreeRadius does not.  It appears enabled by default...is there 
anything else that needs to be done on the FreeRadius server config?  On 
the NAS?

TIA,
