Hello there, I run Samba 3.0.10-1.fc3 on FC3 acting as a domain controller. Until recently this has just had W2K clients connecting to it with no problems. I have now started adding WinXP clients, which have produced an issue regarding password expiry. Every now and again these XP clients - just after logging into the domain - state to the user that their password will expire in 14 days. They can change it if they wish, and although I'm aware it's probably good policy, I don't actually want to implement this. It's becoming a bind for them and I'm getting complaints. I've had a thorough look into this issue, but still cannot find a resolution. I have edited all local and account policy security settings on the clients, but to no avail. I'm fairly certain it's a Samba issue. Can anyone explain to me what the cause of this is and how I can stop it occurring? I would be most grateful for any help received. Thanks very much. ---- - Message sent via Madasafish Webmail - http://www.madasafish.com/ Up to 8Mb Broadband now from just £11.99 a month
