UNIX V4.0a
----------
I am having problems with C2 and the CDE Account Manager when creating
new accounts that have the ""Force Password Change at Next Logon"" set
i.e. a tick in the box. If I create a new account then when the user
logs on for the first time they are not forced to change their password.
The project that I am working on has a requirement that the user should
change their password on first logon.
The extracted record using edauth is as follows:-
test5:u_name=test5:u_id#206:u_pwd=.........:u_succhg#842972757:\
u_pwdchanger=root:u_oldcrypt#0:u_lock@:chkent
Anybody else seen this problem ??

I don't know why your system is not properly setting the
u_psw_change_reqd field. I tried this on a V4.0 system and it
worked fine. I don't have a V4.0a system set up to test it.
As a workaround, you can use /tcb/bin/edauth to add the
u_psw_change_reqd field to the user's account information.
The users account should look like:
test5:u_name=test5:u_id#206:u_pwd=.........:u_succhg#842972757:\
u_pwdchanger=root:u_oldcrypt#0:u_psw_change_reqd:u_lock@:chkent
You can also get the same effect by zeroing the u_succhg field:
test5:u_name=test5:u_id#206:u_pwd=.........:u_succhg#0:\
u_pwdchanger=root:u_oldcrypt#0:u_lock@:chkent

| 8884.2 | Default record had flag set | GEOFFN::WRIGHT | Thu Feb 20 1997 03:10 | 12 | |
It would appear that the problem I have is that I had set the flag
on the default record. As the individual records are a delta of what
is set for the individual user and the default record the flag for
the specific user did not get set.
I have cleared the flag on the default record and changed the instructions
to explicitly set flag when creating the individual users.
