When will my password expire

On shark there is a schript called AD-pwd-experation.sh if you run this script it will tell you in how many days your password will expire.

username@shark:~$ AD-pwd-expiration.sh 
Your Password will expire in 28 Days

When you login with ssh on Shark and your password expires within 5 days you will get a warning that your password will expire.

How to Change my password

To change your password if it's not expired you can type the command passwd

username@shark:~$ passwd 
Current Kerberos password: 
Enter new Kerberos password: 
Retype new Kerberos password: 
passwd: password updated successfully

If your password is expired and you can not log into Shark any more, you can use a website to change your password.

https://passwd.researchlumc.nl/

If you use this URL please use as domain : RESEARCHLUMC
Thus your Domain\username would be : RESEARCHLUMC\USERNAME

Choosing your new password must meet these conditions:

Password must not contain the user's account name or more than two consecutive characters from the user's full name.
Password must be eight or more characters long.
Password must contain characters from three of the following four categories:
- Uppercase characters A-Z (Latin alphabet)
- Lowercase characters a-z (Latin alphabet)
- Digits 0-9
- Special characters (!, $, #, %, etc.)
Password is not used before (counting a history of 24)
Your current password age is at least one day. If it's not, you'll get an error that the password does not meet the complexity requirements.
