On April 9 2007, as a security measure, AFS password expiration was put into effect. Starting from that date, a user's AFS password expires 120 days after it is last changed. To avoid interruption of access to their AFS account, users should change their AFS password before it expires. To alert users to the impending or recent expiration of their AFS password, starting on Monday January 7 2008 informational e-mail will be sent to your UCID@njit.edu, from AFS-pw-mgr@oak.njit.edu, when your AFS password first meets one of the following conditions :
- expires within the next 15 days
- expires within the next 5 days
- expires within the next day
- has expired within the last 30 days
Users must be sure to allow the e-mail address "AFS-pw-mgr@oak.njit.edu" to pass through any e-mail filter they may have, so they do not miss e-mail notifications of impending AFS password expiration.
For details, please see http://web.njit.edu/info/password.expiration.notification.php.
