Re: Disabling password expiration

Hello ghu,

How is this "And it still says the passwords will expire" said? Check on the client with gpresult /v if the policy is applied. You have to configure this setting on domain level policy.


Best regards

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
