Subject:   Account expiration bug or feature?

I noticed that when automatic account expiration goes into effect, the
users default shell isn't changed.  That in and of itself is okay
because they are still denied access when trying to telnet in.
However, this still allows the user to ftp into the system because
(I'm assuming) ftpd see's a valid shell and doesn't pay attention to
the account expiration date.

Is the fact that the user can still get ftp access to system after
their account has expired considered a bug or a feature?

Cheers,
