CHECK_EXPIRE(3) BSD Programmer's Manual CHECK_EXPIRE(3)
check_expire - check for password expiration

login_check_expire(FILE *back, struct passwd *pwd, char *class,
int lastchance);
The login_check_expire() function is called by a BSD authentication login
script to check whether the user's password entry, as described by pwd,
has expired.
If a class is specified, it is used instead of the class specified in the
user's password database entry. If the lastchance argument is non-zero,
the user's password has expired, and it has not been expired longer than
"password-dead" seconds (see login.conf(5)), the user will be able to log
in one last time to change the password.
The login_check_expire() function returns 0 if the user's password has
not expired, and 1 if it has expired or if an error occurred.
Status and error messages are passed back to the login script caller via
the back channel, back.
