Problem with "User must change password at next logon"

[ngtri]

Hi
I am using w2k server and I created a user inside the Domain Controllers. Properties on the user and then ticked on "User must change password at next logon", and then OK

I am using XP as a client to change password:
Prompt opp message to retype a password twice. But the retyped password doesn't work. I got an error message:
_______________________________________________________
The system could not log you on now, because domain JODA is not accessible

Anyone can help me or show me how to do "User must change password at next logon" at the server. Thanks

If I ticked on "Password never expires". It is alright, I can log on

Is it the only workstation on the network? First run the ipconfig /all command for your ip configurations then ping the domain controller from that xp machine.
You should check your dns for the host record of this particular machine
If your dns is working alright and there is connectivity, you should be able to log on to that dc

There are 3 workstations on the network. ping JODA did not response, could not find
How to check dns (standing for domain name system?) ?
