password expire via ftp

[David Thornton]

Hey guys,

Looking for a bit of help if anyone can spare it. I have a client who's 
not happy with the idea that even though a system password has expired 
the user can still login via ftp. As far as I can tell there's no way to 
say: If password is expired, don't let the person login. I'm running a 
redhat system, proftp and pam. I understand that unlike an ssh or telnet 
session , there is no mechanism for updating an expired passwords via ftp.

So I would like to be able to say: If password has expired , treat it 
like the account was locked out. This is on a stock RedHat 7.3 machine. 
I have made no adjustments to /etc/pam.d/ftp

Anyone have an idea? (Or a link) (I have googled "pam expire")

Thanks,
David
