The default value for "Domain member: Maximum machine account password age"
is 30 days on Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 Machines.
The question is, what happens to the computer account if the windows box is
offline for more than 30 days. Will windows try to change the computer
account password after the 30-day-period when it becomes online again ? Will
there be any authentication troubles ?
