The Windows XP workstation shows a message when they try
to change their password. "You do not have permission to
change your password." administrator will get a message
saying "The system cannot change your password now
because the domain (Company domain) is not available" Has
anybody seen this problem. We are connecting to a primary
domain controller through a T1 line. My thought is that
the T1 has got so much traffic it is timing out and not
able to authenticate the new password change. If I go to
the backup domain controller(this is local not through a
T1 line) I can change the password through user manager
for domain and it changes fine.
