Paul,
I have added a small routine to connect.c after line 645 (right after the
motd gets printed) to test for an expired password and to prompt for a new
one. This is AIX code but I guess something similar must exist for other
systems:
if (passwdexpired(pw->pw_name,line)==1) {
setpwdb(S_READ);
printf("3004-610 You are required to change your
password.\n");
printf(" Please choose a new one.\n\n");
strcpy(Password->upw_name,pw->pw_name);
.
.
.
}
I have not made this available because it is a kludge to suit my
requirements. I don't see why a simple three line password expiration
routing couldn't sit just here...?
Anyone see any problems with this? Am I missing anything important?
