Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

I am setting these sttings on the windows 2003 server which is my only domain
controller.

When I run rsop.msc on a local machine, it says "RSOP data is invalid.
likely cause............" and then by details it says: "Invalid namespace".

Thanks

When you run rsop.msc what value is defined? Where are you applying these
values? PW policies must be applied at domain level, is tgis what you're
doing?

I set the values to "0". And it still says the passwords will expire.

I ran gpupdate /force on the server, and I restarted one of the
workstations.

Thanks

I am running a server 2003 domain,
I do not want there to be expiration on the the users password, (as of
right
now there is, and they are getting that it expires in X days).

So I went into domain policy settings on the server, and went to:
security
settings\account settings\password policy.

I set it to "undefined" and restarted the serverI also set the ,
however,
it
still says that the password will expire. I tried to set it to "999"
but
it
still causes the same problems. Password history to undefined, but it
still
says 24 passwords whe nyou try to change it.

The users are on the domain, in there own OU


Thanks
