Hello,
I am using Windows Xp pro SP2 as a client to connect to Windows
Server 2003 domain. i also have windows 98 machines as clients in
same domain.
While i have setup domain on win 98 machines so every time while
logging they ask for domain id and pass, i haven't done so on xp
machines because they were taking too long to log on and being used
by multiple users it created too many users.
Now what i have done is to put all the computers on same work group
(so as to communicate in lan), and winxp machines have shortcut to
server's hard disk, so when ever i try to access files on the domain
server it asks for the password then and it gives me access. Do you
have a better way to do this? ALSO i have security policy which asks
the domain users to change password every 15 days. while win 98 users
get a dialog that password is expired and gives a option to change
it, Winxp users don't get any notification and no option to change
password. how do i do this in winxp and change password? Please Help.

Hi - see my reply to your identical post in m.p.windowsxp.security-admin.
Please don't multipost - if you need to post to multiple groups, it's best
to crosspost instead, by posting a single message to a handful of relevant
groups (separate the NG names with commas) so that everyone can follow the
thread. Thanks :-)
