Look into using the AD command line tools for Windows 2003. If you install
Adminpak from W2003 on an XP Pro SP1 domain computer you can use them to
manage a W2K domain. For instance you can use dsquery to look for accounts
that have a password over a certain age and then pipe it to dsmod to disable
the account or force the user to change the password at next logon. See the
link below for more information on these tools. --- Steve

Hello,

You could write a lil batch file using dsmod, dsquery,
dsget.
