ooops, forget about the Sharepoint using the clients LDAP,
they will never let us access their users database, duh!
So, now i need to fight with the project managers and
giving them reason why their password should change...my first question is still
valid.
How big of a security risk is not having password expiring?
and if it is important how is that banks dont ask clients to change
password.
Thanks

HI,
I have
a SharePoint site for a client, it is driving me crazy because the sales
people are telling me that the users for this site, cant have their password
expiring. The client is a government agency, so I don't want to be
responsible for any information being stolen.
How
big of a security risk is not having password expiring? it seems to me
like security 101, but the sales guy is saying that banks don't ask you to
change your password every X day, good point.
Something I was thinking is having SharePoint authenticating with their
LDAP server, is this possible to do? can anybody point to a url on how to do
this?
thanks
Rezuma
