Hi All,
We have seen some limitation while using sudo on AIX.
If the authentication method is STD_AUTH and user password has expired,
sudo allows users to complete the execution without prompting for password
change.
In case of PAM_AUTH, sudo does prompt for the password change if one is
expired.
Is this a known limitation in AIX sudo and it hasn't been enhanced to
prompt for password change if authentication type is STD_AUTH ?
Thanks,
Sangamesh
