Are the XP machines joined to the domain, and are the users logging into the
domain as opposed to the local workstation? If not, this won't work the way
you want it to.
If so...were the users currently logged in at the time, and can they change
the passwords themselves? (ctrl+alt+del & "Change Password" )?

Don't change passwords while the users are logged in...keep things simple.
