I can't think why you'd want to do this either, but as I said before, it tells you exactly how to do it on the man page. I even worked somewhere which used it too. They also forced everyone to change their password monthly. They thought they were so secure. Of course, everyone's current passwd will be some varient of July2010 at the moment, but people who write security policies usually seem to have a remarkably little understanding of the subject. -- Andrew Gabriel [email address is not usable -- followup in the newsgroup] |
