A quick peek in EzAD Scriptomatic shows that it can be done in VBS so most likely the same is true for KiX. _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more.

It may be valid for Cisco and some other Firewalls and SAMBA On my Windows 2000 AD with an account set to never expire that number has no validity. Chris, you have a link to a MS white paper or KB that shows that? Overall though the code that Chris supplied will give you what you're looking for.

Les Les KiX Master Registered: 2001-06-11 Posts: 12734 Loc: fortfrances.on.ca	He said account expiration, not password. The ADSI IADsUser property is AccountExpirationDate _________________________ Give a man a fish and he will be back for more. Slap him with a fish and he will go away forever.

Sorry about that. You're right he did say Account not Password.

Yep your code works, and so does this for LDAP modified from Microsoft VB script for use with KiXtart.

Code:

Break On
DIM $RC
$RC=setoption('Explicit','on')
$RC=setoption('NoVarsInStrings','on')
DIM $objUser,$dtmAccountExpiration

$objUser = GetObject('LDAP://cn=myerken,ou=management,dc=fabrikam,dc=com')
$dtmAccountExpiration = $objUser.AccountExpirationDate 
If @ERROR <> 0 Or $dtmAccountExpiration = "1/1/1970"
  ? "No account expiration specified"
Else
  ? "Account expiration:" + $objUser.AccountExpirationDate
EndIf
