[Tiger-devel] patch #3668 - Don't check password aging on disabled accounts

[Slater, Christopher]

One more patch.  This one skips the check for password aging on accounts
that are disabled (with either a * or a ! leading off the passwd field).

Thanks

Currently accounts that are disabled with either "*" or "!" in the
password
field are checked for password aging and show up as failures.  This
patch
adds logic to not check for aging on disabled accounts.
