I think that a scheduling the cron job to read changes to the 2nd field
(encrypted password) of the /etc/shadow file seems feasible and safe, since it
does not need the raw password. The only issue is adding the authentication
engine to the shadow group so that it can read the file, since /etc/shadow has
640 permisson.
