[389-users] Password expiration policy problem

[David Hoskinson]

I have configured our directory server to have a global password policy in the directory
server, under Data-> Passwords.  The policy we have elected to use the password expires
in 45 days.  For the last 15 days it has been warning me to change it.  I have on several
occasions changed it by typing password in a terminal window and changing it.  This has
been successful and new password is active.  However the next time I login the count down
has not been reset.  I was wondering what would happen when it got to 0 so I let that
happen today.  As expected it prompted me to change my password and reset it.  However
when I log back in I am still at 0 and hence cannot login to the machine.  I looked at the
passwordexpirationtime on my account and it reads 20111113112125Z as I believe it should
since it was reset today.  Still can't login, and account says I am at 0 days...

Thanks for any help...
