Roger- can you elaborate ? If a domain does NOT have the complex password filter enabled, and then chooses to enable it, are you saying the users with existing non-complex passwords are unable to change them ? Is that behaviour XP-specific, or does it affect Win2K or NT4 clients ? Any published references are appreciated !! (In case it's not obvious, I've been asked to do this very thing...)

Reset them manually - you've probably got the password complexity turned on, and if the original password isn't complex, they can't change it. ------------------------------------------------------ Roger D.
