dear list.
I've sent a mail, a few days ago, and did not receive any replies... let me try again.. I'm sure some of know the issue, and are able to shed some light on it. (i had tow questions, this time i'll split the post in two seperate mails, maybe that's better..?)
Anyway: I've just setup suse 9.1, ftp install. I've added some users, and and somehow, every morning when i try to logon with my (normal, no root) user id, it says: password has expired, and i have to change it. (expiration date is set to somewhere in 2010
where do you see that?
... and yes, system time is current) (and it happened every morning for a week now)
Could it have something to do with passwords being checked every night, and the system finding my password too weak?
Look at the mail sent to root. If the password checker finds any problems it will send a mail detailing them.
