If the following results are what you expect, then signoff x86_64 (the french 
message after the first "su -s ... nobody" means that password must be changed)

Before :

# chage -l nobody
Last password change                                    : password must be 
changed
Password expires                                        : password must be 
changed
Password inactive                                       : password must be 
changed
Account expires                                         : never
Minimum number of days between password change          : -1
Maximum number of days between password change          : -1
Number of days of warning before password expires       : -1
# su -s /bin/sh -c whoami nobody
Vous devez changer votre mot de passe immédiatement (imposé par root)
Changement du mot de passe pour nobody.
Mot de passe UNIX (actuel) : 
su: mot de passe incorrect


After :

# chage -l nobody
Last password change                                    : Sep 19, 2010
Password expires                                        : never
Password inactive                                       : never
Account expires                                         : never
Minimum number of days between password change          : -1
Maximum number of days between password change          : -1
Number of days of warning before password expires       : -1
# su -s /bin/sh -c whoami nobody
nobody
