I am running 2.2.1-Release. I have read the man page for passwd, but haven't been able to setup password expiration. Where do I add the expirations time? I added it to the passwd file with vipw, but it never expired my password. After I changed my password the time entry was removed from the password file. How do I set the passwords to always expire in xx days? Is there any way to keep a list of old password so they cannot be reused? Also, what are good system utilization numbers? I'm trying to figure out at what point I am stressing my system other than the obvious slow down. I have a Pent-Pro 200, 128 meg ram, 256meg swap, 2.2 gig Seagate FW SCSI for the system, 2 x 4 gig Seagate FW SCSI drives for data, 2940 UW SCSI controller, 8x SCSI-2 CD ROM, SMC PCI network card, Seagate 4gig DAT Backup (SCSI-2). I hope this has made sense, I'm trying to get this put before the network goes down for maintence. Please reply to this address or sgregory@crossslink.net or gregory@afpubs.hq.af.mil. Thanks, Scott
