    In Tiger on our AD bound Macs, we would get a very helpful warning that passwords were going to expire in xx days on login.
    With Leo, that’s gone.
    I’ve filed an ER with Apple, and they can’t understand what I’m asking them.
    Hard to believe I know, but true.

    Between that and the keychain sync issue, I find it hard to believe that these would be difficult for Apple to fix?
    Especially with users that have multiple Macs – the keychain/password problem is a HUGE PITA.

    Part vent, part question – why have they not fixed these things?

    I don’t believe that the warning came from MacOS X, but was something you added in. It is relatively easy to do this in a login-hook.

    For some reason I thought that Keychain Minder (it is on http://www.apf548.com) had this functionality, but it does not. I might volunteer to put that in sometime in the near future. But in the mean time, you can do it with a fairly simple loginhook.

    snow leopard DOES do this! HURRAY

    unfortunately it’s doing it EVERY time! BOO

    i don’t want to be notified that my password will expire in 29 days, but 2 or 3 days, that would be good. anyone know if i’m doign something wrong, or if there is a setting i can tweak?

    bump. anyone?

    log in authenticating as an AD user, before you are taken to the desktop you get an intermediary ‘Your password will expire in X days’ with the option to change your password now or continue to the login.

    just want a way to limit this to happening when X is less than a certain number rather than EVERY TIME.
