Well that's unsettling. I'd have thought the nss_ldap would provide 
adherence to RFC2307, where I believe shadowAccount to be outlined,
across platforms. And I'd have thought Solaris to support it foremost.
My implementations have been all Linux, but I know what I am going to 
test next.

Yes, I set this to today's date in my management scripts for command
line account maintenance. 

FWIW, these scripts, and their templates, are here if anyone finds any use 
for them.
