Hi

Is there a way to find out the dates that a user has changed their
password in the last year?

Many thanks

Unless you have auditing enabled you can only find out the date and time
of the last password change. To find out the last date and time look at
the pwdLastSet attribute. It is an int8 (64 bit) format so you will need
to decode it. You can do that by using adfind

adfind -default -f name=someuser pwdlastset -tdcs

or if you need a domain other than your default domain

adfind -b dc=somedomain,dc=com -f name=someuser pwdlastset -tdcs

You can use net user johndoe but this will only give you the date the last
password was changed..
