    Someone had once suggested that I try the Microsoft User Authentication
    Module but that didn't help me any. Our institution now has a 90
    mandatory password expiration rule in place and none of our Mac users
    are being warned. I login on a PC also so I do get the warning there
    but for the 100% Mac folks they just one day can't log in. Microsoft's
    whole SFM is really a sorry excuse.
