Modifying User Traits from the Console
265
The following command lists every user who does not have a password.
NRCS-A: list password= u
user rr kb su mode destination
weisman 0 0 - o
In the previous example, there is one user, weisman, who does not have a password.
To find out who has not changed their password within a specified period of time, use this
form of
list u
:
list passchg<date> u [<domain>]
For instance, to list users who have not changed their password in the last 90 days, enter
list passchg
followed by less than character (
<
) and the number of days you want to
specify—90 in this case—and a period (.). Ending the number with a period indicates the
value is in days; no period indicates hours. There must be no spaces between passchg, the
less than character, and the number of days.
For information on users who have not changed their password within the last 90 days, type:
list passchg\<90. u
A screen similar to the following appears:
User DEV Date Created Last Login Last Password
------- ---- ------------- --------------- -------------
levy 427 02JAN2009 10:50am 24JUL2009 9:03am 06JAN2009 9:50am
As you can see in the previous example, this produces a listing with:
• Name of user
• Device where the user logged in last
• When user became a user
• Date of the last login
• Date when password was last changed
In the previous example, only user Levy has not changed passwords within the last 90 days.
So, use the send console command to send a message reminding Levy to change passwords:
NRCS-A: send levy Please change your password.
