I was rather shocked to see such a policy even existed.

I sure hope that PVS machine accounts are always held in a separate OU and that 
the GP is targeted to only that OU…

That happens with PVS when the group policy to not do machine password changes 
is not set.

Verify the Group Policy Object (GPO) in the Organization Unit (OU) where the 
target device is located for the policy Disable machine account password 
changes to be enabled. This provides Provisioning Services (PVS)  control over 
the target Active Directory machine account.

PVS images sometimes lose their trust relationship because the AD machine 
account password has expired and it therefore can't contact the domain any 
more. That's the only time I tend to see it occurring regularly, although there 
may be many other reasons I am unaware of.

I get them rejoined but why do they lose their trust relationship in the first 
place?
