Many of our users are remote laptop users and do not receive any notification before their account is disabled due to not changing their password per the security policy.
We need a command line (so that it can be easily scheduled) program that will search through our active directory user list (LDAP access is available) and send an e-mail to the e-mail address field for the account telling them the date that their account will expire.
We would like to be able to adjust certain values through an INI file or registry values. Variables should include:
Domain name or domain controller
Maximum password age
Days ahead to alert
From address
SMTP server
Program should not include accounts where "password never expires" is set to true.
