I have migrated from Winnt domain to windows 2003 AD. All was successful. I
have a number of WinXP client systems. I have created an OU called Company
name - location - Users and created a GP. I have worked here for 3 years and
until recently all the users used the same password. I have unchecked
"passwords never change" and changed Domain policy to change passwords every
3 months, with other criteria. The problem is; after about 28 days users are
getting prompt to change their passwords within 14 days? What gives? I have
changed the domain policy to change every 3 months.

Thanks
Joe

Hi Joe

I think it depends on how old their passwords are already.
