using something like (untested):
Code:
for i in `awk -F: '{print $1}' /etc/passwd`; do
done
combined with the chage above and some date manipulation
should get you the alerts :)

That's a BAD idea. I'd suggest that you use a similar
method to the above and then notify the admin. Just think
about it - if people have shell accounts, and store data
(that may in some instance be of importance to the company)
you don't want to automatically delete it just because the
author is gone.
