Applicable from Ambience Version 4.1.0.
From the Domain Manager, you can set the maximum number of days before users passwords expire.
The maxPasswordExpiresDays value under module >
usergroupdb > password-policy indicates the days before passwords expire.This is shown in Figure 3.3, “Setting the Password Validity”:
The definition of "days" is periods of 24 hours. Hence, from 14:00 on Sunday to 14:00 on Monday is 1 day. Even up to 13:59 on Tuesday, the value will still be 1 day, until 14:00 on Tuesday when it will become 2 days.
For a new user, the password validity starts from when the user was created.
Once a password expires, the user can still login to Ambience. The dashboard displays a huge warning as shown in Figure 3.4, “Password Expired Warning”:
This warning is persistently shown till the user changes the password.
