    question Windows Server Small Business 2003

    I consult for a company that has SBS running as a Domain Controller and Active Directory. Originally when I went to trouble shoot their issue, their Active Directory was down as well as the Domain Controller role. They wanted me not to diagnose the issue just rebuild the roles and I did so. Now, 6 months later, the users are having password issues on their client machines. I recently implemented a GPO for the password age limit. It's set to a minimum of 30 days and maximum of 45, But i'm having to reset their passwords remotely every 2 days because the password they choose no longer gets authenticated. Any thoughts? Any questions? Please let me know.

    It might be possible that the drive mappings are remembering the old passwords. On a client, try to delete all mapped drives and then manually reconnect via a command prompt by typing:
    net use x: \\servername\sharename /user:domainname\username password /persistent:yes

    Please change the relevant variables according to your environment. Once done, logoff and then on again and see if the problem goes away.
