Hi. I'm the network administrator for a medium sized company and we have a Win2k AD Domain. Our client computers runs Win2000 Pro and WinXP Pro. I would like to know if anyone could help me out with this: . Users can't change their password on any of the XP machines; . Administrators can't change their password on any of the XP machines! . I can only change passwords for WinXP local SAM users !! . The error message is something like this: "You don't have sufficient privilege to change your password at the moment". . The same users and administrators are able to change their password on any Win2000 Pro machines. Hope someone has lived trought this or can have a clue on what is going on here. Best Regards, Patricia Viana. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Captus Networks Are you prepared for the next Sobig & Blaster? - Instantly Stop DoS/DDoS Attacks, Worms & Port Scans - Precisely Define and Implement Network Security - Automatically Control P2P, IM and Spam Traffic FIND OUT NOW - FREE Vulnerability Assessment Toolkit http://www.captusnetworks.com/ads/42.htm ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
