Password expiration notification

We have a win2k (sp2) server running Active Directory.
This server was originally built w/o AD on it. After
putting AD on, now the win2k clients (running sp2 - sp4)
that connect to it do not receive notification when their
password is about to expire. Their accounts just become
locked and they cannot connect. The few pc's we have
running win95 still receive notification.

Anything I should look for to get this resolved?

Thanks,

Steve

already set up, and has had no effect.

Thanks,
