[Bug 987] New: pam account setup uses non-LSB command

Sorry, although the recent version of usermod can use -e option to modify
the expire date, but this option is not listed in the LSB 3.o specs:

http://refspecs.freestandards.org/LSB_3.0.0
/LSB-generic/LSB-generic/usermod.html

In fact, we need chage for both vsx1 and vsx2:

chage -m 1 -M 2 -d $yr-$month-$date vsx1;
chage -E $yr-$month-$date vsx2

we can use usermod (which conforms to LSB) to replace chage for vsx2, but
it has no such features as -m, -M and -d options of chage.

Any thoughts?

Hi Mats,

Should we include chage into LSB spec? Or is there another way to achieve
the
same function using LSB conforming comands? I cannot find it.

nThis:


The pam runtime_config.sh script which performs account setup is actually
using
a command not required by the LSB to do this work: chage.  This means a
conforming system could fail to perform this setup, and end up failing a
bunch
of pam tests.
