CHAGE(1) Comandi utente CHAGE(1)
NOME
chage - cambia le informazioni sulla scadenza della password
SINOSSI
chage [opzioni] LOGIN
DESCRIZIONE
The chage command changes the number of days between password changes
and the date of the last password change. This information is used by
the system to determine when a user must change their password.
OPZIONI
The options which apply to the chage command are:
-d, --lastday LAST_DAY
Set the number of days since January 1st, 1970 when the password
was last changed. The date may also be expressed in the format
YYYY-MM-DD (or the format more commonly used in your area). If the
LAST_DAY is set to 0 the user is forced to change his password on
the next log on.
-E, --expiredate EXPIRE_DATE
Imposta la data o il numero di giorni dal 1 gennaio 1970 dal quale
l'account utente non sarà più accessibile. La data può essere
inserita nel formato AAAA-MM-GG (o il formato più comunemente
utilizzato nel proprio paese). Un utente il cui account sia
bloccato deve contattare l'amministratore di sistema prima di poter
accedere nuovamente al sistema.
For example the following can be used to set an account to expire
in 180 days:
chage -E $(date -d +180days +%Y-%m-%d)
Passing the number -1 as the EXPIRE_DATE will remove an account
expiration date.
-h, --help
Mostra un messaggio di aiuto ed esce.
-i, --iso8601
When printing dates, use YYYY-MM-DD format.
-I, --inactive INACTIVE
Set the number of days of inactivity after a password has expired
before the account is locked. The INACTIVE option is the number of
days of inactivity. A user whose account is locked must contact the
system administrator before being able to use the system again.
Passing the number -1 as the INACTIVE will remove an account's
inactivity.
-l, --list
Visualizza le informazioni sulla scadenza dell'account.
-m, --mindays MIN_DAYS
Set the minimum number of days between password changes to
MIN_DAYS. A value of zero for this field indicates that the user
may change their password at any time.
-M, --maxdays MAX_DAYS
Set the maximum number of days during which a password is valid.
When MAX_DAYS plus LAST_DAY is less than the current day, the user
will be required to change their password before being able to use
their account. This occurrence can be planned for in advance by use
of the -W option, which provides the user with advance warning.
Passing the number -1 as MAX_DAYS will remove checking a password's
validity.
-R, --root CHROOT_DIR
Apply changes in the CHROOT_DIR directory and use the configuration
files from the CHROOT_DIR directory. Only absolute paths are
supported.
-W, --warndays WARN_DAYS
Set the number of days of warning before a password change is
required. The WARN_DAYS option is the number of days prior to the
password expiring that a user will be warned their password is
about to expire.
If none of the options are selected, chage operates in an interactive
fashion, prompting the user with the current values for all of the
fields. Enter the new value to change the field, or leave the line
blank to use the current value. The current value is displayed between
a pair of [ ] marks.
NOTA
The chage program requires a shadow password file to be available.
The chage program will report only the information from the shadow
password file. This implies that configuration from other sources (e.g.
LDAP or empty password hash field from the passwd file) that affect the
user's login will not be shown in the chage output.
The chage program will also not report any inconsistency between the
shadow and passwd files (e.g. missing x in the passwd file). The pwck
can be used to check for this kind of inconsistencies.
The chage command is restricted to the root user, except for the -l
option, which may be used by an unprivileged user to determine when
their password or account is due to expire.
