I'm trying to output password statuses for RedHat. Is there an equivalent of “password -s” in RedHat?
I'm trying to output password statuses for RedHat.
For my Solaris machine, I was able to run:
for i in `more shadow | awk -F: '{print $1}'`; do passwd -s $i; done
And that gave me password statuses for all accounts - Ex. PS, UN, UL, etc.
Is there an equivalent of "password -s" to show password statuses for RedHat?

I only have a SuSE machine handy, so take this with a pinch of salt, but it's probably the -S switch to passwd:
-S,--status
Display account status information. The status information consists of 7 fields. The first field
is the user's login name. The second field indicates if the user account has a locked password
(L), has no password (NP), or has a usable password (P). The third field gives the date of the
last password change. The next four fields are the minimum age, maximum age, warning period, and
inactivity period for the password. These ages are expressed in days.
This man page suggests it might only be available to root on CentOS/RedHat; on SuSE, you can also run passwd --status to find out about your own account.
