Re: Changing Password

You might want to try...

Manage passwords stored on the computer
Log onto the workstation as domain administrator.
Open User Accounts in Control Panel.
On the Advanced tab, in Passwords and .NET Passports, click Manage
Passwords.
Remove any stored usernames/passwords.
Log off the workstation.
Have the user log onto the workstation and test.

I have not actually been there when he changes it but I am pretty sure he
is
changing it right when it prompts him, I don't think he knows about users
and groups on the local machine as I never showed him how to change a
local
machine password.

Is that user that has problems a local admin on the machine he uses?

I have a client with a Windows 2003 Small Business Server, with
password
policy enabled to change password every 30 day. This works fine for
all
users except 1. When he changes his password he is able to log into
his
computer however none of the mappings work and he is not able to get
into
exchange , the first few times I manually reset his password on the
server
and then things worked, another time it seemed to fix itself after a
while
but this last time I had to go to his machine and go to user accounts
and
change his password that way. I have since disabled password changing
but
they would like it reenabled. I will try and get the error from event
viewer
however it has probably been overwritten by now.
