I've sent a mail, a few days ago, and did not receive any replies...
I remember, but nothing clear occurred to me.
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..?)
Definitely. The subject should match the contens... many of us do not read all emails, just browse around and read those whose subject is interesting or we can answer or learn from.
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... 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? This is just a test setup, don't want to have difficult passwords in a test setup...
I don't know, but it could be. I find that a Good Thing To Do... Anyway, test the hypothesis: create a new test user with a difficult password. If it is not reset, that's the problem. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
