So it just lets you login?!?!

I've been testing expired passwords with OpenSSH, and it seems to work ok on my Linux system, but perhaps VMS is different.

Could you could create a test account for me with an expired password to allow me to see what's going on?

If not, I'd have to send you a debug version that will spit out a log that will allow me to analyze the problem.

I never actually get logged on. I enter the ID and temporary PW, but then no response back. AbsoluteTelnet shows that it is connected via SSH, but no response back to change the password. As mentioned earlier, PUTTY and SecureCRT have no problem responding back that the PW needs to be changed and allows it.

Unfortunately, this is behind a firewall and no access outside is allowed. Please send the debug version with instructions and I will run that ASAP. Thank you!

I've been doing some reading and working on a solution for this. I think I know what is going on and I have a version I need for you to test:

I posted an update last night. Were you able to try my recommendation?

I have tried it and it works! Many thanks!

Well, I guess I didn't try this update far enough. The window comes back and asks for the previous password and the new password, but never accepts the new password.

Again, with other terminal emulators, this works. Any possibility of checking a little further into this? Thank you!
