# passwd.expire.cron: sample expiry notification script for use as a cronjob
#
# Copyright 1999 by Ben Collins <bcollins@debian.org>, complete rights granted
# for use, distribution, modification, etc.
#
# Usage:
#	edit the listed options, including the actual email, then rename to
#	/etc/cron.daily/passwd
#
#	If your users don't have a valid login shell (ie. they are ftp or mail
#	users only), they will need some other way to change their password
#	(telnet will work since login will handle password aging, or a poppasswd
#	program, if they are mail users).

# <CONFIG> #

# should be same as /etc/adduser.conf
$LOW_UID=1000;
$HIGH_UID=29999;

# this let's the MTA handle the domain,
# set it manually if you want. Make sure
# you also add the @ like "\@domain.com"
$MAIL_DOM="";

# </CONFIG> #

# Set the current day reference
$curdays = int(time() / (60 * 60 * 24));

# Now go through the list
