You can set the password to expire virtually immediately:
pw usermod -n username -p +1m
or add the '-p +1m' bit to the 'pw useradd' line used to create the account.
I believe this will mean the user is required to set a new password on
login after the password has expired. Might be an idea to test that though.
Cheers,
Matthew
