[389-users] Re: Setting "lock" time of an account in the future

Hi Cenk,

Yes this can be done by first locking the entry, and then setting
passwordLockoutDuration to the time (in seconds) into the future you
want it to unlock.  So it's not a nice date you can use, but the value
can still be calculated

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_directory_server/11/html/administration_guide/managing_the_password_policy-configuring_the_account_lockout_policy#configuring_the_account_lockout_policy_using_the_command_line

HTH,

Mark
