I have a client that wants me to change the Umbraco backoffice login functionality to support auto-expiration of the password after a given number of days and warn the user when he or her logs into the Umbraco backoffice. This is done to force the users to change their passwords on a regular basis.
Any idea how to implement this in the best manner?
I guess I could do a check in the initial dashboard that is loaded, but I'd be interested if anyone had another approach. Possibly even to catch this before the user is redirected to the backoffice.
This is very much a .net membership question - I'd recommend checking the last login date when the HttpApplication.PostAuthenticateRequest event is fired
But true as PBrack posted, this is likely to be a .net membership question. To achieve the automation you need a daemon running towards your database checking the lastActivityDate or lastLoginDate.

What version of Umbraco?
