Password experation with remote users

We are looking to implement password experation. Our
concern is with remote users who use broadband connections
when away from the office. If the password expires while
they're on the road, we want them to get prompted to
change their password. With Dial up users this works fine
if they check the box "Log on using dial-up connection" at
the initial login screen. However, how do we accomplish
this with a broadband connection? We use checkpoint
software with SecureID to get past the firewall. However,
the users don't get authenticated afterwards, they use
cached credentials to access the network. With the dial-
up they get prompted before getting to the network.
 
I have the same dilemma in our company. When you figure a solution, let me
know. But I can tell you this. I got many calls from remote users got
locked out of their NT account after they changed their password. I have to
unlock their account pretty much everyday to a point that we just set their
password never expires.
