How do you get W2K to prompt you that your domain password is about to expire? In NT4 you get promted that your password will expire in ....days and do you want to change it now? how do you get the same prompts in W2K?

 
Hi
There is option in local

Security policy--> Account policy --> Password Policy

There is the option what you required for Prompting for expiry date of the password.

Aslam

ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Be aware though if you do use that feature, someone who is clever enough can change there password before the first warning, (because the first warning is 14 days after the password is set), and keep the same password. When this is done before the first warning to change the password, the timer refers to the password as new and resets itself. A security glitch that was brought to my attention the other day.
