Restricting user from changing password
Sometimes on shared lab machines it may be desired to prevent users from changing passwords. To do so use:
chage -m 1000 <username>
This would prevent user from changing his/her password for next 1000 days.
After this change user password once and the newly set password would be locked for given number of days.
