Not actually relevant. See the RunCache script..

Daemons should never implicitly depend on non-standard paths (other 
than /bin:/usr/bin). If they do then they will fail in one 
configuration or another.

I think you want to retune the ttl there, and use a margin to start 
denying shortly before the set password expires if possible to avoid 
accidental blocking the password.

Suggested ttls for the external_acl_type:

   ttl=1800 negative_ttl=5

and use a negative margin of 30 minutes when determining if the user 
needs to change his password.
