    I'm not sure about the issue with domain pw over a public net but to find out users whose password's are about to expire just use this-
    dsquery user -stalepwd <numdaysSinceLastPwdChange>

    Note this will tell you not just which users whose passwords are about to expire but also users who must change their password at next logon.
    This also does not take into account things like cached logons where the pwdLastSet attrib is not updated in AD.

    Good luck

    Subject: Changing Windows domain password over Internet

    Hi,
    Anybody in this list can you help me in changing the
    windows domain password over Internet.
    I have studied a bit and quickly come over these .HTR
    files - "
    aexp.htr, aexp2.htr, aexp2b.htr, aexp3.htr, aexp4.htr,
    aexp4b.htr, anot.htr, anot3.htr", I have used
    aexp2b.htr file for changing password over Internet.

    My problem:
    ------------
    I am not able to change domain password for accounts
    which have expired. I am able to change the password
    over the local netwqork even after it has expired and
    want to incorporate the same functionality over the
    Internet.

    Questions2:
    ----------
    Also is there a script, which can query my Active
    Directory for user accounts whose password is about to
    expire in next 14 days?

    Thanks and Regards,
    Sanjiv
