Hi Adam,
Don't think that has made it into the 2.2 cvs branch; you can set the
timeout for 
MACHINE passwords, but not user passwords, at least not as a configurable
parameter 
in smb.conf.  Depending on how you are doing authentication, there may be
some scripting
workaround for this, but I haven't played with it.  Perhaps someone on the
list may know.
Don

Subject: Password Expirey


Is there anyway to expire password for windows clients with a Samba (in my
case
recent alpha version)?  I found a post the TNG parameter "password expire
time =
10" but a "strings smbd | grep expire" didn't turn in up in the binary.
Anyone
have any ideas if this is possble (I see it posted frequently to the
archives, 
but no answers).
