Hello,

We have our maximum password age policy set to 30 days in a 2003 domain environment. It is not prompted every windows xp client/user to change their password. We know that policy exist on these machines since other policies are working properly. Any suggestions on the possible cause would be greatly appreciated.

THANKS!!

Only guesses, one might be that the client isn't actually logging on to the server but locally. The other might be that a user attached the computer to the server instead of that computer being made in AD first might bypass gpo.

thanks, but those aren't it. There are no local accounts and this is a networked environment, no connections directly to servers.

First thing I would do is run RSOP (Resultant Set of Policy)against an XP client to ensure that it is picking up the policy setting.

On the Server start/run/mmc add the Resultant Set of Policy and run it in "logging mode"
