In my network, we have it set where passwords expire every 45 days. On the last 5 days, the user is prompted every day saying, “Your password will expire in x days, do you want to change it now? [Yes] [No]”. Clicking on [Yes] puts the user in a never ending loop and has never properly changed a password. We therefore ask users to click [No] to that question, and advise them to change it throught the Passwords applet on their Windows 95 machines. My question here is if there is any way to change the text on that system generated message (Your password will expire in x days…..). Ideally I would like to change it to:
“Your password will expire in x days, please change your password in the Control Panel
[Ok]”
Possibly a registry modification??
