Hello

We would like to set permissions to all our domain users so they can change
their passwords.
Is there a way to generally set permissons (disable 'users cannot change
password' box)? and how?
Also, we want to configure our sistem to force password change upon 3 weeks
(to force users to change passwords)? and
password must be different from the one they use now.
I red that this must be done via Domain Group Policy? Are there certain
steps that I must follow?

Thank you all in advance for help and support
Best regards
Miha

If the users password is set to never expire, use netuser from tip 570
in the 'Tips & Tricks' at http://www.jsiinc.com and getusers.bat from
tip 7964, to run the following batch on your PDC emulator domain controller:

@echo off
setlocal
for /f "Tokens=*" %%u in ('getusers') do (
netuser "%%u" /pwnexp:n
)
endlocal
