Force password change on a specific date

[trojanman]

Im still learning SBS but how can I enforce a domain-wide password change on a specific date? Ive already enforced my password policies in default domain controller security policy, I just dont know how to enforce it. All help is appreciated!

To enforce password change, you could select all the pertinent users, get properties on them all at once (it will show you a properties sheet with limited options) and then check the "User must change password at next logon" check box in the Accounts tab. You would do this on the day that you want to password change enforced.

I would suggest doing that at night the evening before. This will avoid anyone being logged on an getting prompted after the fact.

I hope you find this post helpful.
