Extract the value of the password lifetime into the LIFETIME variable:

 		 LIFETIME=`samba-tool domain passwordsettings show | \
 		 		 grep "^Maximum password age (days):" | awk '{print
$5}'`

and then, for the user in question, extract the value of pwdLastSet into
LASTSET (perhaps from ldbsearch), and then:

 		 LASTSET=$((LASTSET/10000000))
 		 LASTSET=$((LASTSET-11644473600))
 		 EXPIRES=$((LASTSET+3600*24*LIFETIME))
 		 EXPIRESSTR=`date -d @$EXPIRES`
 		 echo "Password expires $EXPIRESSTR"
