Thanks a lot Christ, a managed using pdbedit. In facts, many accounts were carrying only the [U], no X (but i clearly remember I changed every user's setting with "password never expires" from the srvtool graphical tool :s )
Now the only thing i have to do is waiting.... Thanks a lot for your time, hoping this will permanently do the job.
