Gib,

use passwd -e option when you set password.

I want to be able to create a VMware template with a user ID that has an initial password andalso will force the user to enter an initial password. When I set an initial password it will not force it to change when logging on the first time.To force the initial password to change with the first logon I can't set an initial password.I don't have the "adduser" script available. This is what I'm using: useradd -e 2014-12-31 -d /home/myuser -s /bin/bash myuser
