Interesting, the manpage passwd(1) says that 'passwd -l' should also set
account expiry to 1, but it doesn't. Either passwd or the manpage is
wrong, so I think this should be reported against the package passwd.
It sets a value to 1 in my

A few days ago (due to a broken harddisk) I've installed Lenny from
scratch on my laptop.
I've copied pretty much every configuration from the old installation

I'm not an expert, but a quick read through passwd(1) says account
