Re: Network password question

Hi Terry,

I am being asked by our auditors to produce a list of all user-ids on
our M$ network that have passwords that are set to never expire.
I'll be looking for a reporting tool for Active Directory this morning,
but thought I'd ask this group for any recomendations on such tools.

I'd prefer a freebee, but that isn't a hard requirement.

This is usually done with scripting. Here is one of many examples that you'll
find out there:

http://www.activexperts.com/activmonitor/windowsmanagement/adminscripts/usersg
roups/localusers/

This page not only has a script to identify those that don't expire but a
script to set those to expire as well.
