Password changes upon CDE login...

Hello...

  I've got a bunch of 5.0a clients running NIS and Enhanced shadow password
security. If I force a password change for a specific user, that user can
log into the main NIS server and is then prompted to change his/her
password.

  The problem is if that user tries to instead log into a client that is
using the CDE interface, the login fails with a message of :

        Password Expired (as it should be)
        Not authorized to change another user's NIS password.

  Is there anyway around this or do I have to tell them to log into the
main server first...thanks...
