I've never done it, but I think 99% is done by editing the passwd file and then going to that user's entry in that file, then you need to replace the last field in that line "/bin/badsh" with the path to the passwd utility program. Now, when they log in, the passwd will be executed immediately, and then they will be asked for regular passwd change procedures, then upon completion they will be logged out!! Ok I just tried it on a Raq 4, and it works great. You need to put the path /usr/bin/passwd in place of /bin/badsh. So you first create a user with shell access through the web UI and then you perform the above operations.
