    Hello,

    I'm interested to know if there's a way to ask for the status of a
    certain user account from within a script. The machine is not having the
    trusted features enabled. My question is not related to a specific
    version of Tru64, I would appreciate something that works since 4.0F or
    such if possible of course.

    As far as I noticed, the administrative lock puts a 'Nologin' string in
    front of the password entry in the passwd file, so this could be a
    hands-on solution. However I don't know where to look whether the
    account (and its password) is expired.

    Is there a command allowing to get the user's status or do I have to
    parse myself some (which?) configuration files? dxaccounts doesnt say
    anything about expiration, by the way (and wouldn't be a solution anyway
    as I can't use it from a script).

    Thanks a lot,
    S
