Hi...
sorry for my bad english.

- when a new account is created, the user immediately must change the password when [s]he first logs in;
- after that, the password shall expire after x days.

sambaMaxPwdAge =  number of seconds  (60 x 60 x 24 x nDays)
sambaPwdLastSet = set to '0'  at create the account.

good luck

Hi all,

I have a question regarding the enforced change of passwords in Samba 3.0.28 (coming with Ubuntu Hardy) in connection with a LDAP backend. In particular, I am looking for a documentation how the fields sambaMinPwdAge, sambaMaxPwdAge (from sambaDomain), sambaPwdCanChange and sambaPwdMustChange (from sambaSAMAccount) interact.

I would like to have the following:
- when a new account is created, the user immediately must change the password when [s]he first logs in;
- after that, the password shall expire after x days.

Unfortunately, I tried a number of combinations without success. Everything seems to be controlled by the sambaMaxPwdAge setting (seconds relative to sambaPwdLastSet when the password must be changed?), and the other entries seem to be irrelevant?

Any documentation/pointer would be welcome!

Thanks, Albrecht.
