That allows you to log in to the AD domain from, say, KDM. This must be set even to get to the place where a password can be considered expired. But that is not necessarily the same as what to do when the AD password is found to have expired. If the OP says he is getting the message that his password is expired, should he be expecting KDM to have popped up a window where he can enter a new password that can be set in the AD? I think this is what he is curious about, and apparently does not see.
Having said that, what happens with a regular Linux account password if it is set to expire? Does KDM offer a place to enter a new one?
While on the topic of AD, aside from not needing to set up an account on the Linux machine, what else can logging in via AD offer on openSUSE?
You earn real single sign on aka the environent is kerberized.
But here I might have missed your question. Please be more verbose about what you mean with "what else can logging in via AD offer on openSUSE".
I was curious if there were any things that could be set up on Linux as a result of this AD login. I guess these are outside the AD login per-se. But having got the AD login makes one want to try more things that are no doubt beyond AD login. Once one has completed step A, there is always step B, C, etc... Us users are never satisfied.
