RE: [ActiveDir] Password Change for 100% Remote User Workstations

Gene,

 

Take a look at your VPN connection.   Are you logging into the workstation, opening a tunnel, and doing their work.

 

OR

 

Are you logging into the workstation,  opening the tunnel,  logging out, and logging back into the now connected workstation?

 

If not....the user will not be flagged that their password is about to expire, and will end up being locked out.

 

We had the same issue, and have solved it.

Subject: Password Change for 100% Remote User Workstations

We are having problems with users being able to change their passwords when they expire.  The users having the problem are 100% remote.  Very rarely do they connect to our private network.

Most of the time they use VPN over a dial up connection. 

I am wondering how other people are dealing with this problem.  I really do not want to set passwords to never expire.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Gene Molloy
