I just started a new job where they just migrated to Win2k
and when anyone logs onto their pc's they are prompted to
change their passwords everyday. I have checked their
user accounts and nothing there is set to force a password
change and I set the password policy to force a change
every 30 days. They have previously worked around this
problem by setting all user passwords never to expire.
Also, all the PWL files on the pc's have been deleted to
see if that would fix the problem.
