hello
I've read this thread on samba-technical
(http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba-technical/2007-May/053497.html).
see below
I'm running samba -3.0.25 and would like to set the password last set time.
I've tried this command: pdbedit --pwd-last-set-time="2007-10-31"
--time-format="%Y-%m-%d" but it does not work.
<quote>
If you need to force it for a single user, then choose a password
last set time accordingly (zero would be fine to force it now).

How can you do this (set the password last set time attribute using pdbedit)?
I would like to force my users to change their passwords.
kind regards
werner

Yes, this is the key part: we are now doing it correctly, and we weren't
before. If you need to force it for a single user, then choose a password
last set time accordingly (zero would be fine to force it now).
