We have SSH running on our Linux Redhat 9 server. I set up new users to dump
them upon initial login to a common directory using the following command:
        useradd -M -d /home/shared username -p password
        passwd username (for some reason, -p password doesn't work?)

On a daily basis, they are locked out. /var/log/secure indicates the
following:
        fatal: monitor_read: unsupported request: 24
        PAM rejected by account configuration[13]: User account has expired

/var/log indicates the following:
Aug 19 10:38:15 wow-rtr sshd(pam_unix)[19144]: account emon has expired
(failed to change password)

They log in with winscp3 (graphical client) using sftp.
