I like the idea. The pam_winbind.conf is a little long (and
prone to mistype). How about just "warn_pwd_expire = <num_days>"?
I think some of the lines are past 80 columns. See the recent
README.Coding file in SAMBA_3_0. I'll spend some time on Thursday
reviewing this more and hopefully getting it into the tree.
