thanks,
don't suppose you could give me a clue as to how to set a policy e.g. for a
group, then create users for that group such that the group has passwords
which don't expire ... do you?
I am working on a script to install up to 50 user accounts for FTP logon in
and I'm trying to avoid having to visit each user in the user manager and
check the box "Password Never expires" - it's a real drag.
Thanks
