domain wide password change

Hello Board,

I would like to force all my users to change their password next month.

What's the quickest way to have this scheduled for all users (or
specific users)?

Hi Kirrin,

You could use Windows 2003 tools like dsquery and dsmod. A model of this
script is:
dsquery user “ou=users_ou,dc=yourdomain,dc=org� -limit 0 | dsmod user
-mustchpwd yes
The - limit switch specifies the number of objects that match the given
criteria to be returned. If the value is 0, all matching objects are
returned. If you do not use the limit switch, only the first 100 results are
shown.

Have a nice day!
