I know 3.X is going the PAM route, but this box is still 2.2.7-RELEASE (it's only acting as an IMAP server). I want new accounts to telnet to the machine and change their passwords to something they'll remember, so I've set the 6th field in /etc/master.passwd to :1:. On testing, I am correctly told my password is expired, but if I don't change it, I am allowed to log in (BTW, the passwords are blank at the moment). Is there a param in /etc/login.conf that I can set, such that I can refuse a login if the password isn't changed? I have RTFM, but I'm unclear if some of the variables refer to account expiration rather than password expiration. Cheers, Adam.
