Expire All Passwords at once

[warburp]

Hi

I have implemented a new minimum password length (part of company policy) and I now need to expire all passwords where they do not meet this length (8). Can anyone suggest a good way of doing this.

thanks

Phil.

an example:

foreach user in (`cat /etc/passwd | cut -f1 -d:`)
passwd...
end

Best Regards, Franz

Cant you set the length of the password in /etc/default/passwd or something?

AFAIK Solaris allows a maximum of 8 characters in a password, any chars over that are ignored. I wonder if this is the same for Trusted Solaris (which I've never used)?
