Synopsis

The remote Mandriva host is missing one or more security-related patches.

Description

When accounts are created in MDS, the accounts are created with shadowExpire=0 They should be set with shadowExpire=-1, otherwise new accounts will always warn that they are expired when logging in using the account.

This fixes this bug for new accounts created using MDS. It does not fix the problem for existing accounts.

Solution

Update the affected package(s).
