We have a couple of stand alone systems. We have the local policies set so
that every 60 days the users have too reset their passwords. Normally you set
the administrator password to not expire, but they want us to also change it
every 60 days. When it comes time we recieve the prompt to change it, but if
we decide not to change it we can cancel out and go ahead and continue using
the admin account with the password expired. We want to make sure it is
changed every sixty days. we do not have the account never expires box
checked in the admin's account policy.
We want to make sure when the Admin password expires that it must be changed
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Glenn

Does the prompt warn you that the password is about to expire or does the
prompt say it has expired and you must change it before you can logon? ---
