Expiring Several Passwords at the Same Time

You can expire the old passwords of several user IDs at the same time by creating a CMS EXEC file that lists the user IDs with old passwords, then expiring them by executing that EXEC.

For example, to expire all user ID passwords that are at least 45 days old, enter these commands:

vmdirect query password 45 (exec
cms vmdirect expire

The first command creates the CMS EXEC file that lists all user IDs whose passwords are at least 45 days old. The second command executes that EXEC, expiring all of those passwords at the same time.
