Hello,
I would like to know how i could lock an account when the corresponding password expires. I have looked in the strategies (password strategy and locking account strategy) but i can't find it anywhere.
Thank you in advance.
 
What exactly are you trying to accomplish? If you set the policy to expire passwords every "X" days, then that will force the users to change their passwords every "X" days.

If you have a specific account that you wanted to control the password for, set the option to not allow the user to change the password, expire it in "X" days, then you will effectively control that account's password.
