Re: Network Users password expired

You only get the prompt during an interactive logon, so for your users that
don't do interactive logon, you'll need a different solution. Email is the
standard way to do it.

Hi,

We have two Windows 2003 DC Servers. We have about 8 Windows Member
Servers.
We have about 100 client users.

Out of 100 clients only 20 have access to login to the member servers so
they know when their password is going to expire with the default prompt
of
14 days.
However, the other 80 users login to domain using shortcut to map to
member
servers. Their workstations are not joined to domain. The users never get
prompt when the password is going to expire because they are mapping to
the
member server using domain ID. I'm not sure if there is an option in AD or
Group policy to prompt this 80 users for password expire who only mapping
to
member servers by using domain ID.

Every month I have to unlock or reset the users' password because either
user's password has expired.

I know I have option to sent email by following the steps from JSI Tip
8451.
