Bulk remove "Must Change Password" Possible?

[physikal]

Is it possible to remove the "Must Change Password" at next login tick for all users with one command? If so please help!

from this thread [SOLVED] Force password change for ALL accounts

I bet if you change the option to FALSE it will disable the change password at next login option...so it would be :

for each in `zmprov gaa`; do zmprov ma $each zimbraPasswordMustChange FALSE; done

I tried that but it doesnt seem to be working for me. I don't think i'm enough of a linux guru to understand that bash thing, where to type it and under what user. all that good stuff hah.

It's one line, copy/paste it and run it as the Zimbra user - zmprov is always run as the zimbra user.

Just in case you still need it, or will need it in the future...

#!/bin/bash
# Script for setting the zimbraPasswordMustChange attribute enable or disable

zmprov gaa > accountsList.txt

while read user
do
echo $user
zmprov ma $user $1 $2
done < accountsList.txt

rm accountsList.txt

You can make a bulk change of any attribute. For example ./bulkAccountAttributeChange.sh zimbraPasswordMustChange FALSE

Here's a new script in case someone has problems running the previous one, it takes almost 3 seconds per user, so plan your changes proactively in case you have to leave this running.


#!/bin/bash
# Script for setting the zimbraPasswordMustChange attribute enable or disable

/opt/zimbra/bin/zmprov -l gaa > accountsList.txt

while read user
do
echo $user
/opt/zimbra/bin/zmprov -l ma $user $1 $2
done < accountsList.txt

rm accountsList.txt
