Greetings,

I know what the cause is but not the solution.

I have a Win2K Pro PC with CIS security template Win2K Gold applied. This
template sets the RestrictAnyonomous=2 and restricts anonymous access to 'No
access without explicit anonymous permissions', which prevents use of the
Null account.

Of course now the Administrator's account password has expired and cannot be
changed. The error message is 'You do not have permission to change your
password.' This is the only Admin account on the PC. All other accounts are
'Users'.

Help!
Joe
