Oh I am sorry, let me explain a little better.... I do know how to do this from the command line, but what I am wanting to do is to have my Gnome users have a pop-up, at first login, that will prompt them to change their password. I have not been able to find anything that would point to this solution. Any ideas?

If the user has no password ("passwd -df username"), they will get a special session (an xterm with no window manager) that forces them to set a password, then goes back to the login screen.

I have been unable to force a password change at dtlogin (it's not sunray specific, IIRC) if the user already has a password (i.e., "passwd -f username" doesn't work for me, either).

Why not just have a process watch the password database to watch for changes and blank the password after expire time?

Should be possible with a simple shell script called from cron.
