Computer Account corrupted because of Password Expire

Hello,

I have set the default domain policy to enable minimum password age 30 days.

When the password expires the user is prompted to change it. But for 2 users the computer account in AD keeps on corrupting. I have to remove the computer from the domain, rename the computer and re-join it to the domain.

In one instance this did not work for me, so I had to delete the user account, and re-create it. Then everything is ok.

I have disabled minimum password age until I can find out what is causing it.

At first I thought it was because the user was logged onto another computer elsewhere, and that they were prompted to change their password on a second computer. But one of the users has only ever been logged onto 1 computer.

Has anyone encountered this kind of problem before, and found what the cause was?

Is there an easier workaround other than deleting the computer or user account everytime.

Thanks
