#42445 - 2003-07-03 10:49 PM Password Expiration Notice
Anonymous Anonymous Unregistered	I was wondering if someone could help me out here. I'm trying to create a script that will notify a user when their password is getting ready to expire however when I run the script I've created I get notified for everytime I have message box. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. $maxpwage = 90 $passwordage = @PWAGE $passwordtitle = "Password Expiration Notice" $passwordnotice1 = 80 $passwordnotice2 = 85 $passwordnotice3 = 87 $passwordnotice4 = 89 :10DAYS If $passwordnotice1 = Val($passwordage) Goto DAYS5 Else MessageBox("$passwordtitle","Your password will expire in 10 days.",64) EndIf :DAYS5 If $passwordnotice2 = Val($passwordage) Goto DAYS3 Else MessageBox("$passwordtitle","Your password will expire in 5 days.",64) EndIf :DAYS3 If $passwordnotice3 = Val($passwordage) Goto DAYS1 Else MessageBox("$passwordtitle","Your password will expire in 3 days.",64) EndIf :DAYS1 If $passwordnotice4 = Val($passwordage) Goto END Else MessageBox("$passwordtitle","Your password will expire in 1515 day.",64) EndIf :END

hmmm, think the logic is a bit reversed ? probably might want:

code:

If $passwordnotice1 = Val($passwordage) 
 MessageBox("$passwordtitle","Your password will expire in 10 days.",64)
Else 
 Goto DAYS5 
EndIf

Or maybe use the SELECT-CASE-ENDSELECT construct ?

code:

Break On
 
$maxpwage = 90
$passwordage = @PWAGE
$passwordtitle = "Password Expiration Notice"
$passwordnotice1 = 80
$passwordnotice2 = 85
$passwordnotice3 = 87
$passwordnotice4 = 89 
 
Select 
 
 Case $passwordnotice1 = Val($passwordage) 
 
  $= MessageBox("$passwordtitle","Your password will expire in 10 days.",64)
 
 Case $passwordnotice2 = Val($passwordage)
 
  $= MessageBox("$passwordtitle","Your password will expire in 5 days.",64)
 
 Case $passwordnotice3 = Val($passwordage)
 
  $= MessageBox("$passwordtitle","Your password will expire in 3 days.",64)
 
 Case $passwordnotice4 = Val($passwordage)
 
  $= MessageBox("$passwordtitle","Your password will expire in 1515 day.",64)
 
 Case 1
 
EndSelect

This can be set to any period you want. It will notify the user EVERY time they logon until they either change it, or it expires. If you want it to be 10 days, set it for 10 days. By default it is 14 days.
