These only take effect if you are using password expiration in the RADIUS
users file.

Close. When using the 'radpass' program to change their password, the
expiration date is reset that many days into the future. So it is 30 days
from the last change.
And the warning means that for 5 days preceeding the expiration they get
a warning messsage each time they connect. But that only works for shell
users, not PPP.
Basically all of this dates back to when most users were connecting to a
UNIX shell, not doing PPP.

No. Besides, hardly anyone uses this anymore, since you'd need to have
some way for the users to change their passwords. And for most ISPs
forcing password changes just isn't worth it. People have enough trouble
remembering one password.
