Use the native passwd tool... according to the man page:
-x This will set the maximum password lifetime, in days, if the
user’s account supports password lifetimes. Available to root
only.
for u in `cut -d: -f1 /etc/passwd`; do
passwd -x 90 $u
done

Subject: recommendations for password management tool
I'm looking for a user password management tool that will allow me to alter
sp_max in /etc/shadow, the number of days before a change is required in the
password. I have the set to 180, and I want to set it to 90 for all my users.
I've googled but came up empty. Webmin (which uses usermin) doesn't do this, as
far as I can tell.
Thanks!
