Password Constantly Expiring
I have a NT 4 Wkstn (SP6a) that gives the following message every time users log into our NT 4 domain.
"Your password expires today. Would you like to change it now?"
The main user of this machine recently changed his password (last week), and he had no trouble logging in with his new password until 3 days ago.
This happens with every single user that logs into this computer, except for users that have the 'password never expires' attribute.
When looking at 'User Manager for Domains'(not local User Manager) on his computer the attribute 'User must change password at next logon' is checked, and if you uncheck it, click OK then open the properties it's checked again....?? When you check U/M for Domains on the PDC that option isn't checked.
The password expiration policy is set for 45 days.
Replication between the PDC and BDC is working fine.
All of the services seem to be up and running OK.
If he changes his password using CTRL-ALT-DEL 'Change Password' it still makes no difference.
Nothing has been recently installed.. (except for a re-install of SP6a.. didn't help)
If anyone has heard of this before a little help would be great. I'm at a loss so far..
If all else fails I guess a re-install is in order.
Thanks
