getting days to expiry for passwords where /etc/shadow does not exist

Asked by sunhux in Unix Network Security, Linux

Tags: , , ,

Hi,

Currently I use the following script to obtain the number of days root password
is expiring.  However this script will not work if /etc/shadow do not exist, esp
in an enhanced security mode (where /etc/shadow is not used).

Kindly suggest alternative or how I can work around this - if you can amend
my script's codes, that will be great.  I'm using HP-UX B.11.23 U ia64

## Today's date (expressed in epoch format)
  today=`perl -e 'printf("%d\n", (time/60/60/24))'`

  line=`grep root: /etc/shadow`
  USER=root
  DAY_LAST_PASS_CHANGE=`echo $line | awk -F: '{print $3}'`
  DAYS_PASS_VALID=`echo $line | awk -F: '{print $5}'`
  DAYS_SINCE_LAST_PASS_CHANGE=`expr $today - $DAY_LAST_PASS_CHANGE`
  DAYS_UNTIL_PASS_EXPIRE=`expr $DAYS_PASS_VALID - $DAYS_SINCE_LAST_PASS_CHANGE`

  echo "Root password expiring in "$DAYS_UNTIL_PASS_EXPIRE" days"
