Is this new or ongoing behavior?? The first two things I would check is that
the properties in the user's account in ADUC does not show that can not
change password is enabled and that the minimum password age is not set too
high which generally does not need to be more than two days. You can run the
command net accounts on a domain controller to quickly see that setting
which usually is set by Domain Security Policy unless you have configured
additional GPOs linked to the domain container that are higher in the
priority list than the default domain GPO that have minimum password age
configured. Also make sure that the client computers can contact a domain
controller or the password change will fail. The support tool netdiag will
show errors/warnings if a domain controller can not be found or contacted
when run on a domain client computer.

error unable to change password
They exist in a windows 2000 ad domain, as far as i can see there is no
policy preventing the clients from changing their domain logon password
can anyone point me in the right direction, thanks in advance
