Password Expiry?

Hi Guys,

Is there a function in OFBiz to automatically expire passwords and force
the users to change say monthly or after a preset number of days? I have
had a hunt round nabble but nothing seems to be coming back?

Cheers
Sam

Thanks Mukesh - it had everything except password expiry. I guess it
probably needs building!

Cheers
Sam

Hi Sam,

Look at this property file for password settings 
/framework/security/config/security.properties

Thanks

I'm not sure what your are saying but I didn't mention null fromDates.  I said:
check for null thruDates
AND
fromDates earlier than the configured period

null fromdates should be an ECA for all entities that have that field, 
IMHO, and not count on code.

You'd probably want to make use of the UserLoginPasswordHistory entity.  Running a nightly job that checks for null thruDates and fromDates earlier than the configured period would probably do the trick.

there is a flag to force a new password. you can write a schedule 
service to reset this based on last updated time stamp.
