I am needing to test our Exchange OWA server and how it handles a user who's
password is almost expired. Supposedly at 14 days until expiration, OWA
will notify the user that they need to change their password. I figure that
I can manually age a users password using the ADSIEdit utility but I do not
know what to change. Any ideas?


Thanks,
Fred
 
Tried this and it does not work. I get a value and plug it into the
pwdLastSet value using ADSIEdit but it will not save it. Any ideas out
there?

I don't believe that it is a writeable attribute.

Fire up the environment in a lab and just set the password expiration to 16
days.

See tip 9205 and link in the 'Tips & Tricks' at http://www.jsifaq.com to alter the expiration warning during testing.
