Re: [Toolserver-l] List of expired accounts

[Federico Leva (Nemo)]

Thanks, Tim. That gives me 558 usernames, a bit too much: I'd probably 
need to filter out the accounts which had already expired (much) earlier.
Focusing on what there's demand for is what I intend to do, but I have 
dozens of tools in my bookmarks and more listed on wiki pages they 
relate to, listing and checking them one by one constantly is annoying.

 Hi, can we have a list of all the accounts that expired in
 the Big Catastrophic Deadline of the 6th (and have no
 redirects to other places, maybe)? We're bound to have
 hundreds of dead tools in this moment and I'd like to avoid
 chasing them individually.

You can do so yourself:

| timl@willow:~$ date2days $(date +%Y-%m-%d)
| 16083
| timl@willow:~$ ldapsearch -h ldap -b o=unix,o=toolserver 
'((objectclass=posixaccount)(shadowexpire=16083)(!(shadowexpire=16083)))' uid 
|
|  sed -ne 's/^uid: //p;'
| [...]

However, I don't think that's a useful approach.  If there
are tools in use, and someone complains about them no longer
working or their URLs get hammered in the httpd logs, resur-
rect them for sure; if not, let them rest in peace.

There's a lot to be done for tools that are /actually/ in
demand; no need to spend time on ones that clearly aren't.
