Date: Tue, 23 Mar 1999 22:07:35 -0500 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit X-Priority: 3 X-MSMail-Priority: Normal X-Mailer: Microsoft Outlook Express 5.00.2014.211 X-MimeOLE: Produced By Microsoft MimeOLE V5.00.2014.211 Sender: owner-freebsd-isp@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org It seems that "getpwnam" returns the password regardless of the expiration setting. So that would mean that the program that's checking a user's password also needs to check for the expiration date? Or is there a better routine to use that automatically does this? In any case, it's beginning to look like I need to patch the merit radius server ... I'm hoping that's not the case because I hate running edited code ... :-( Thanks again, -=| Ben To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
