Hi Moe. It sounds like you have done it correctly. I would try to change the setting
to maybe 15 days for domain policy and then run secedit /refreshpolicy machine_policy
/enforce on the domain controller. Then reboot a domain computer to see if the
"effective" setting changes to 15 days. Assuming it does, change it back to 14 days
on the domain controller to see if it helps. If nothing helps, run netdiag and dcdiag
on the domain controller and netdiag on one of the domain computers looking for any
failed tests that may be pertinent. Gpresult may help you track down the
roblem. --- Steve
