Feature #295: checkLdapPwdExpiration.sh / minor issues
http://tools.lsc-project.org/issues/295

Author: Benjamin Griese

Hello,
while trying to get the expiration mails working I felt into some trouble 
getting users from my DIT for the below small issues:

searching for users didn't work for me, because my ou's are further branched in 
sub ou's:
<pre>
@${MY_LDAP_SEARCHBIN} ${ldap_param} -s -one- -b "${MY_LDAP_SEARCHBASE}" \@
</pre>


I simply fixed that by using sub instead of one:
<pre>
@${MY_LDAP_SEARCHBIN} ${ldap_param} -s *sub* -b "${MY_LDAP_SEARCHBASE}" \@
</pre>

The next problem was the different behaviour/syntax of cut on my system than 
expected in your script in below lines.
The problem was the character extraction at the beginning by character number 0:
<pre>
@pwdChangedTime=`grep -w "pwdChangedTime:" ${buffer_file} | cut -d : -f 2 | cut 
-c 0-15 | sed "s/^ *//;s/ *$//"`@
</pre>

and

<pre>
@y=`echo ${pwdChangedTime} | cut -c 0-4`@
</pre>

fixed by beginning at 1
<pre>
@pwdChangedTime=`grep -w "pwdChangedTime:" ${buffer_file} | cut -d : -f 2 | cut 
-c 1-15 | sed "s/^ *//;s/ *$//"`@
</pre>

and

<pre>
@y=`echo ${pwdChangedTime} | cut -c 1-4`@
</pre>

Maybe the problem only appears with my version of the coreutils where cut 
belongs to.

Thanks for your great work anyway. :)

My System: 
SLES11 SP1
Stock OpenLDAP 2.4.20
coreutils-6.12-32.17 (provides /usr/bin/cut)
