-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Boaz,
I'm using LDAP as a backend so YMMV. On 03/16/2007 12:10 PM, Boaz Bezborodko wrote: > I'm setting up a Samba server using CentOS 4's (RedHat > Enterprise Linux) standard version (v.3.0101411). I Hmmm, you should upgrade your samba version. Not sure if it will solve your problem, but I'm using 3.0.24 and the information of this message is based on this version. Anyway, 3.0.14 and 3.0.2x has lots of improvements and fixes that are worthwhile. > want to be able to force users to change their password > upon first logging in and to have to change them after > a certain period of time (per user, not system-wide). > > The problem is that the pdbedit commands don't seem to > be registering at all in the database. If I enter the > following command: > pdbedit --pwd-must-change-time="2010-01-01" --time-format="%Y-%m-%d" Not sure if it is a bug in pdbedit, but there is an unusual behaviour of samba with regards to passwd fields, here is a message where I explain the behaviour: http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2007-February/129890.html > I still get: > Password last set: Fri, 16 Mar 2007 10:02:06 GMT > Password can change: Fri, 16 Mar 2007 10:02:06 GMT > Password must change: Mon, 18 Jan 2038 22:14:07 GMT > > How do I control login times? Basically, even when changing it per-user, you need to respect that global policy to get things working as expected. I've been adding users and doind the pwd dance for a few months now, and everything is working fine.
