The problem is that KUser expires the accounts when it is NOT supposed to
expire accounts. From what I found while searching for a solution is that
other people had this problem too so I wanted to post something in case it
wasn't already posted here.

So again:

The Problem: KUser expires accounts when it is not supposed to.
And in my orginal post I explained how I recovered from the expiring of
account.
Also I asked if anyone new of a patch or a way to fix KUser. Does anyone?
