If the intent is to provide better login security for ssh, I'd recommend
the RSA key based authentication. You could write a script to create one
for every user, place it in his home directory and mail the user the
key.

Subject: [Ilugc] force to change password


Hello All,

I want to force the users to change the password after one month in my
linux server. I have done this using the command

passwd -x30 <userid>

Now when i login using telnet after 30 days it is asking me to change
the password. But if i login using ssh it just closes the session. How
to force password change when i use ssh?

Regards,
Keerthi
