Question How to get user status(active,locked,retired, etc) reports on Sun, HP, OSF and Linux?

We have a need to create reports on the status of users on various Unix flavors.
We would like to get a summary of how many expired, locked, disabled, active, retired and/or active/unlocked are on each system, along with total accounts. We understand that each method would be different depending on OS, security settings, NIS vs. Local, and accounting methods used. But will like to know how others are doing this? For example, using OSF/Digital Unix, one-way would be to use the tcb and edauth utility to extract some of this data on a trusted system. Are there similar methods for HP, Sun, and/or Linux?
