Thanks for the info on Pol Edit.

On 98 and an 2K client. You get the message that the password much be
changed, you enter your new one twice, and when you click "OK", you get the
"You do not have permission..." error.

Does the "Change password on next logon" option in NT Server only work for
NT Workstations or something ?

Any help appreciated.
