You might take a look at the platform SDK and see if there is anything in there about it. Be aware that if you have multiple desktops, there may be multiple places to make changes. I'd be more of a fan of writing a script to notify users of password expiration than I would of re-writing, deploying, and supporting custom code to the desktops.
IIRC, the information for that notification is received by the workstation with parameters but the text and facility to change the text lives on the workstation not on the servers. One example of a script that uses email to notify (there are many) can be found here http://www.houseofqueues.com/CodeSamples.html There is plenty of room for improvement in that script as well ;) -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Olegario, Alan Sent: Monday, March 07, 2005 4:50 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Changing "Prompt user to change password before e xpiration" notification What I'm told (InfoSec is checking on this) is that the application does not handle notification. I was thinking about just writing a script to check when the user's passwords will expire and then shoot them over an email but figured I'd try to see if there's any easy way to change the text first. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mulnick, Al Sent: Monday, March 07, 2005 4:42 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [ActiveDir] Changing "Prompt user to change password before e xpiration" notification Wouldn't it make more sense to just turn that off and send them a notification via the third-party app?
