Turned off telnet on 40 AIX servers and allow login via SSH only. To my dismay learned that SSH is not forcing password change for new users and at password expiration date. Anyone else experience this and/or have a fix or workaround.
 
Yes I have experienced this - worked with IBM as they tried to re-write the code for openSSH - they are now putting out to the larger openSSH community.

Its tough having to choose between one supported security option and another....

Rumour has it that the commercial version of ssh solved this problem - I have yet to try it.

Hope this helps you feel less alone!
