On a Windows 2000 Server domain the last 4 or 5 times we've expired passwords

we have had Windows XP users call and tell us they didn't get the password

expiration warning when they logon to the computer and they are unable to

access the exchange server or log into the internet (Websense). It's never

the same users each time nor is it all of our XP users. So we have to

uncheck the box for User must change password at next logon and then change

it manually. Any ideas as to why this happens?

Your post doesn't match the title! You say passwords aren't expiring in the title, but in the post say they are, but that users aren't being notified/

Whichever the case, I can't offer much help except to say that nowadays many security experts are recommending that you do NOT force users to change their passwords regularly. See here for an interesting article about it from the UK's National Cyber Security Centre.

No problem, Steve, it happens all of the time. :D
