password aging

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm having some trouble with students who use my lab being forced to 
change their password every time they log in.  I should say that to 
create the user accounts in fedora directory, I used LdapImport and used 
/etc/passwd and /etc/shadow to create the new accounts.  In addition, 
we've been using NIS to authenticate prior to the import of user 
accounts, so there probably was some difference in passwords.  I thought 
that they could change their password and that the aging of the password 
would be updated correctly, but this doesn't seem to be happening.

any help would be greatly appreciated.
