Ad-User script to check if expired password = true and email helpdesk

I have a script that runs each day and reminds my users that their password will expire. This works well.
I'm having trouble creating a script to email our helpdesk once the password has expired so engineers can reset it automatically.
The code I have displays nothing yet I know I have expired passwords.
Get-ADUser -filter {(Enabled -eq $True) -and (PasswordNeverExpires -eq $False) -and (PasswordExpired -eq $True)} -properties PasswordLastSet, PasswordExpired, PasswordNeverExpires, EmailAddress, GivenName
Please help!

I looked at a test user meeting these criteria. Although the AccountExpirationDate was in the past, the AccountExpired property was still $False. I'm not sure what process is responsible for changing the AccountExpired property based on AccountExpirationDate,
but this is where your script seems to fail. 
This works:
Get-ADUser -filter {(Enabled -eq $True) -and (PasswordNeverExpires -eq $False)} -properties PasswordLastSet, PasswordExpired, PasswordNeverExpires, EmailAddress, GivenName, AccountExpirationDate |
Where { $_.AccountExpirationDate -lt (Get-Date) }

Account expired is derived by the Classes.  It is not on the raw object. It is all that needs to be checked.  If an account is not set to be expired then that will always be false.
Like this:
Get-ADUser -filter * -properties * |?{$_.passwordexpired}  | select passwordexpired
You can also do the math.

  • Password reset and email doesn't send email.

    I want to reset my password, so I clicked on reset password and email, and have not received an email. Now I have no idea what my password is. It's really tough to get to this page.

    I've had this problem for several weeks, now running FF 6.0.2, although I doubt the FF version has anything to do with the problem. I sent the following e-mail to [email protected] on 9/20, and have so far received no reply:
    ============
    I've been having login problems on Mozilla sites lately, apparently
    because I can't remember my username. Since I can't remember my
    username, I can't request a password reset.
    I've tried the usernames in Firefox's Saved Passwords file, but of
    course they don't work. I can't reregister because my email address is
    "already in use", undoubtedly by me. One of the Firefox sites eventually
    gets to where they claim to send me account information, but that never
    shows up, either in my Thunderbird client, or in Verizon's files --
    either mail or junk. I've tried this many times with the same result,
    Is there any way to simply delete my e-mail account from all of
    Mozilla's websites, forums, etc., and let me start over?
    ===============
    I've established a new account using a new e-mail address, so I can start using the forums again, but I would like to get back to using my "real" e-mail if possible.
    Interestingly, when I post anonymously and am asked for an e-mail to confirm my subscription to a forum, I use my "real" e-mail, and receive the confirmation request from [email protected] OK. It's just the password-reset e-mails that aren't working.

  • Using Mavericks Spelling and Grammar in Pages document causes Pages to freeze. Must Force Quit. Mavericks spell checker works OK in Text and Emails. How can I fix this problem?

    Using Mavericks' Spelling and Grammar in a Pages document causes Pages to freeze, Must Force Quit. How can I fix this problem?
    Mavericlks Spelling and Grammar works in Pages when used manually. And it works automatically in Text and email.

    Another autocorrect bug:
    I type a lot of lyrics, which tend to cotain words like ’cause and ’em instead of because and them.
    I've set up autocorrect instances to change a plain apostrophe with an ending, single curly quote for these words, but they are invariably changed to a beginning, single curly quote mark by Pages. The only way I can get the correct curly quote is to type over the wrong quote manually and hope that I don't have to edit the rest of the word again, as this would cause autocorrect to kick in again and change the quote to the wrong, beginning curly mark again.
    Does anyone know how to get around this tedious problem?

  • Site Login Behavior For SharePoint Foundation 2013 Users With Expired Passwords?

    What are the most user-friendly ways of getting external users with expired AD passwords back into the SharePoint site with a new working password?
    We already send automated email notifications to users reminding them to change their soon-to-expire passwords.  However, sometimes they miss seeing the email notifications before the password expires (such as after returning from vacation or just carelessness
    and lack of attention to email messages) or they see the warning messages and forget to act on it.
    When this happens and they try to log into the SharePoint site from the Internet, their login fails without telling the user the reason they can't log in is because their password expired.  So, they end up confused and call the help desk to get their
    password reset.
    Is there a way to set up SharePoint Foundation 2013 login in a similar way to the OWA login so that, when a user with a correct but expired password tries to log in, it gives them a prompt to set a new password right there rather than just an error indicating
    their login failed for unknown reasons or password is "incorrect?"

    It could be done. You get a different event log entry for an expired login attempt than for a wrong password, 4625 events denote a login failure and an error ID of 23 denotes a logon failure.
    A naff, but simple, approach would be to create a tool that checks your server logon event log for 4625 entries and then emails that user, or the help desk, or security, that they're trying to get onto your system with expired credentials.
    For a more polished experience you've got a lot more work and bluntly it's going to be impractical for you. You'd have to re-write sections of the SharePoint authentication process or intercept the process, both are risky and not a good idea to try.
    There's a really interesting paper here that might be of interest, it won't help you in your current situation but it might shed more light on the overall authentication/authorisation process.

  • CFLDAP & Expired password

    Hi,
    We have recently implmented CFLDAP authentication on one of
    our websites & discovered a new issue of expired passwords.
    I have been trying to read attrubutes like maxPwdAge or
    accountExpires but not able to read the values as I guesss they are
    flags. What I found on net is that coldfusion is not capable to
    read ADSI & need to use java or vb object. Is that correct or
    is there any other method of checking the expired password &
    redirecting the page to change password form.
    Thanks in advance
    Any help is greatly appreciated
    Thanks

    alter user <username> identified by <new_password>;
    to make password unexpired:
    in the profile of the user--> alter profile <profile_name> LIMIT password_life_time UNLIMITED;

  • "Expire Password" setting

    If you check the "Expire Password" setting under a user's "Account Control", Save and then open up the user info page again, this setting becomes unchecked. So simply opening up the page again causes the user not to be prompted for a new password, whereas that is what you expect to happen. Why does that option become unchecked automatically?

    Spadafo:
    No. I don't want the change to be optional, nor do I want to ask the administrator to do anything; I want to do it myself.
    And I found the solution: Simply do it in 2 steps:
    Change the password – “Apply Changes”, then go back into the user’s page - click "Expire Password" - “Apply Changes”
    That way, the "Expire Password" will apply to the new password, not the old one, and thus the user WILL be prompted to change it.
    I have to consider this a fault in APEX. If you've already entered a new password, then "Expire Password" SHOULD MEAN expire the new password. It doesn't make sense for it to mean expire the old password if you've just entered a new one.
    After all, it is a pretty common scenario for the end user to forget the password, in which case you want a fast method of changing it and requiring it to be immediately changed from what you set it to. So you should be able to do this by entering the User's page only once.

    thanksHello,
    Welcome to Forum!
    That's a too big question for anyone to explain in forum unless they have any link to documentation or blog entry or some books.
    Have you already tried something for this? If so, please post the code here..
    Algorithm for this would be..
    <li> Compare username and email with values from DB, go to next step if they are correct, otherwise return error message
    <li> Generate random password using combination of username and/or some random strings. You may use DBMS_RANDOM.STRING to generate this password
    <li> Update your table with new password. If you store password as hash value (the way it should be stored), then hash password before updating it to table
    <li> Send e-mail to use using APEX_MAIL.SEND

  • How to check: password expired,password forced to change,user disable

    I am writing application to detect the following. I just need to check whether the condition is true. What are the things that I need to check for:
    - when a user password is going to expired in x days?
    - when a user is forced to changed a his password?
    - when a user is disabled? For this, do I check the attribute "nsaccountlock=true"?

    you can use he passwordControls during a BIND operation and investigate if the password expired/expiring in so many secs
    - when a user is forced to changed a his password?
    - when a user is disabled? For this, do I check the
    attribute "nsaccountlock=true"?Yes, if some interface is actually using this to disable the user in the first place.

    If you don't want to be constrained by keeping your videos super small so they can fit in an email, there are several solutions:
    1) Get a .mac account and use Web Gallery ($)
    2) Use Youtube and include a link to the video in your email (free)
    3) Use Google Video and include a link to the video in your email (free)
    4) Use VIMEO and include a link to the video in your email (free)
    There are several other video hosting services but you get the idea.

    Hi,
    The failing line is
    sqlplus -s $USER/$PASS\@$i <<EOF >> useracctreport.txtYou should test the connect statement you provide to sqlplus. For example:
    CONSTRING=$USER/$PASS\@$i
    echo Connect string used: $CONSTRING
    sqlplus -s $CONSTRING <<EOF >> useracctreport.txtCheck the echoed value. It's malformed. Correct it appropriately.

  • Password validation script checking against stored passwords

    I am able to create a script to check and validate for the password complexities outlined by our Active Directory GPO, but is there a way to check the password against the 1-24 stored passwords to validate that it hasn't been used before?
    Thanks

    Sorry Bill, I have written a forms based application in VB.NET that will allow the end-user to type in a proposed password. upon the press of the "Test" button the application loops through the characters in the textbox.text and determines if it
    meets at least three of the following requirements:
    1) the proposed password has at least one uppercase character
    2) the proposed password has at least one lowercase character
    3) the proposed password has at least one numeric value
    4) the proposed password has at least one symbol
    5) the proposed password has at least one Unicode character (non upper/lower case)
    and an over all check that it meets the length requirements
    I am hoping to find a way to check against the stored passwords to find out if the password has been used before.
    Thanks,

  • Which attribute shows if a user has an expired password?

    DSEE 6.3
    I created my own password policy, and applied it to a single user.
    I would like to know which attribute shows if a user has an expired password, and how do I query that attribute for the user. How would I query the time till expiration as well?
    I am basically looking for example queries to such information.
    thanks,

    My limited experience with this sort of thing is to run a query like the following:
    ldapsearch -1TL -h `hostname` -D 'cn=Directory Manager' -b "dc=<your dc>,dc=com" uid=<uid your choice> pwdAccountLockedTime pwdFailureTime pwdLastAuthTim
    e pwdChangedTime passwordRetryCount nscpentrywsi
    This dumps some helpful stuff. I've noticed ... in our ldap instance that a locked account has the following output:
    pwdAccountLockedTime: 000001010000Z
    I don't know why it shows up that way ... but it's something I can key on and search for to find locked accounts. Not necessarily an indication that a password has expired, of course, but sort of interesting to me. An account can be locked for other reasons obviously.
    I think pwdChangedTime might be what you want assuming you know what the password expiration time is set to ...

Maybe you are looking for
