RE: Password expiration notice for non windows users
We had this situation for awhile, and ran a scheduled script on from one of our servers to send out notification emails when their passwords were about to expire. From: Ehren Benson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, December 10, 2008 8:41 AM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Password expiration notice for non windows users Hi, One difficulty we are having is we have a lot of users who have exchange accounts in our exchange 2007 organization that do NOT actually log into windows machines in the domain (mac users, linux users etc). These people either use entourage or other IMAP clients. The problem we are having is that when users passwords are about to expire or do expire they don't get notified by exchange and then all the sudden they just can't log in or get mail. Is there a way to make exchange warn users of expiring passwords via imap, owa, entourage etc? Thanks! Ehren J.

RE: Password expiration notice for non windows users
I have a VBScript that is scheduled to run on our DC's every night and check accounts against the domain password policy and if they are within 14 days of expiration, they are sent an email warning the password will expire and needs to be changed or risk being locked out. Anyone interested from a .edu email me off list and I'm willing to share. - Thank you, Pete Kretche MCP, A+, HP APS Senior Network/Systems Administrator E-mail Administrator UW - Green Bay Voice: 920.465.5014 Fax: 920.465.2864 [EMAIL PROTECTED]mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Be green, keep it on the screen!

RE: Password expiration notice for non windows users
I recently installed Adventnet's ADSelfService and published it through our firewall, and it allows a user (after enrolling) to reset or unlock their account. If you have =50 users, it's free.

RE: Password expiration notice for non windows users
I can't remember from the top of my head now, but there is a web tool provided by Microsoft under the IIS tools installed in SMB (and probably in any DC Windows Server) that let you to reset your password. I customized the script to change the look and feel, but blocking any access from outside it should be safe enough and you would have less headaches resetting passwords miguel --- El mié, 10/12/08, Sean Rector [EMAIL PROTECTED] escribió: De: Sean Rector [EMAIL PROTECTED] Asunto: RE: Password expiration notice for non windows users Para: MS-Exchange Admin Issues exchangelist@lyris.sunbelt-software.com Fecha: miércoles, 10 diciembre, 2008 9:55 I recently installed Adventnet's ADSelfService and published it through our firewall, and it allows a user (after enrolling) to reset or unlock their account.
