OK, I asked this question originally last July, and was told that it
would get into the code soon.  Well, it's 2 minor version numbers
later and sshd still doesn't handle expired passwords properly.

It frustrates me to no end that for all practical purposes ssh 2.x
makes it impossible to also regularly expire passwords.  After
expending so much energy explaining why encrption is important and
convincing my users to migrate to secure shell, I have to tell them to
use telnet when their passwords expire.

Can somebody please explain why it's so hard to ge this working when
it was already working in the v1 system?
