    Hi all,

    I've been out of the network adminstrator position for a while. I now find
    myself as admin for a small network with XP pro workstations and Win2k DC.
    I ran baseline and and IIS lockdown, all sorts of security updates, and
    somewhere I did something that not only requires everyone to change thier
    passwords, but tells them they are unauthorized to change thier password
    when they try.

    I've check the user profiles and the do not have password expiration
    enabled. (I know, bad move)
    I can find nothing in the account policies of the domain security policies
    or domain controller security policies tjat would cause this. Any ideas
    would be helpful. 7 days to lockout and counting.

    Also, is there a way to prevent a person or account from being used on two
    computers in the domain at the same time?

    Thanks a bunch

    TB
    IT Admin
