Re: Password Expiry Notice not taking effect in Citrix

Sorry, one more thing. You said about setting it up in the default
domain policy. How do you set it in there? All we have done is change
the registry setting on the servers?

The users are gettting a prompt 14 days before it changes when they log
into Citrix. If a user logs onto just a normal PC they dont get the
notice until 3 days.

So first the basic question... (sorry)
1) is the citrix machine in the target OU
2) is the citrix machine a domain member?
3) is the citrix machine a DC? (only asked due to your comment about
replication)

The password policy is a bit unique/confusing for one main reason. You only
set up domain based password policy (typically the default domain policy)
and it affects domain users. It will push its policy to machines but that
doesn't affect any domain based users, only local users.

One more question. Regardless of the 'registry' setting, what is the
experience of the users? are they prompted to change their passowrds
appropriately?

Hi

I wanted to change the password expiry notice to be 3 days instead of
14 for all my users. I changed this on the 3 DC's that we have. This
works now on all the PC's.

However, we use Citrix as our main access to software and on all the
Citrix Servers, it has kept the registry setting as 14. Any ideas on
why the DC's havent replicated to the Citrix servers. The Servers all
appear in DNS ok just like the pc's and they log onto the network in
the same way?
