G'day Jeff,

   chage -l <username>

should give you a clue. Here's a RH SA Guide entry that might help...
<http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-3-Manual/ sysadmin-guide/s1-users-cmd-line.html>
warning - that will have wrapped.


Cheers

telnet

it sure looked as though it just worked on my machine via ssh

G'day Ben,
What "just worked" on your machine via SSH? You cannot use SSH to login to an expired account in a normal install of RedHat and a "Good Thing"(tm) too. I know that RH documentation should not be considered infallible but in the context they are right this time.


Cheers
Glen
