to change the password you have to be able to get to the PDC ( at least in
nt40).
check to see if there's a domain entry for the pdc in WINS.
try a pdc reboot, or you might be able to do an nbtstat -RR to release and
refresh. (I've never tried this)
any events in the PDC or workstation event logs?

Peter - I do not have that option checked in UM. All has been working fine
untill this last round of users have been prompted to change the passwords
on their interval. I just brought a new WINS server up and online and
shutdown the old one and it seems to coincide with these issues. That is
why I am thinking that, but just wanting to see if anyone else has had
these issues. Never had them before.
Thanks again,
Craig DeLong
