I read on comp.security.ssh that forced password changes are supported
in
OpenSSH 3.8.1p1

Guru's,
This has been bugging me for a while now and I was wondering if any of
you have had the same and what you did to solve it.
All our AIX users passwords expiry after a certain amount of days, now
when they log in via telnet then they are prompted for a password
change but if they log in via ssh then they don't get prompted for a
password change. Is the a patch for AIX 4.3.3 to correct this or has
someone created a scripts forces ssh users to change there password
once expired.
Any help would be great..
Thanks
