My SA says he could install Expect/TCL on our development box, but would not be able to justify the install on our UAT & PROD servers. Providing a "convenience" to folks to synchronize passwords would not be considered justification to install software.... (And I have an extremely cooperative SA!).
Our technical organization recently merged with another "sister" technical group and their procedures are being inflicted on the rest of us. Also the auditors have been having a field day...hence the implementation of pasword rules, use of sudo, restrictions on FTP only accts, etc. etc.
