Retrieving Server messages

I am currently developing a Java application that interacts with the CISCO ACS for Authenticating passwords using Tacacs+. My problem is that when a user's password is about to expire the getServerMesage() function does not return any message. I looked up the Tacacs+ RFC file and it says it's only optional to return the message.

Is there anyway i can get around this so I can tell when a user's password is about to expire?

If it does not return any message when the user's password is about to expire, then there you go. Is there no way to request a time when the password expires?

Yea i can tell when the password has expired but not when it is about to expire. However if I setup a router to interact with Tacacs+ it will always provide the user with the appropriate messages.It's a total balls!
