Hi Steve,

It’s a bug. If you really need the pop up warning, you can use the plain login screen. Go to System > Administration > Login Screen to configure the login screen.

Hi,
I have Password Expiration set up with my CentOS 4 network and it works fine. But my CentOS 5 machines refuse to pop up a Warning message at desktop login, unlike my C4 ones.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Steve
