Guest Owen@7 Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 We are running a 2000 sp 4 domain. Most machines have been promoted to 2003Server I still have 2 to promote then I will promote the domain. When users change their password (when it expires), users claim that they change the password, hit enter, and when they try to log back on, the new password does not work. What does work, is nothing or a blank password. Any suggestions?

Guest Meinolf Weber Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 Re: changing an expired password Hello Owen7@discussions.microsoft.com, Either with Outlook express or another newsreader, configured to the msnews.microsoft.com server Internet Explorer Newsgroup Setup Instructions Published: August 27, 2001 Follow these steps to access Internet Explorer newsgroups using Outlook® Express. 1. Print out this page for easy reference as you go through the steps. 2. Launch Outlook Express. You may be asked whether you want to make Outlook Express your default e-mail program. If you don't have Outlook Express installed, you can download Outlook Express from the Internet Explorer 6 Downloads page. (You will need to download and install Internet Explorer 5.5 or Internet Explorer 6.) 3. On the Tools menu in Outlook Express, click Accounts. 4. In the Internet Account dialog box, click the Add button, and then click News. 5. In the Internet Connection Wizard that appears, type your name in the Display name field, and then click Next. Type your e-mail address in the e-mail address field, and then click Next. 6. Type msnews.microsoft.com in the News (NNTP) Server field. 7. Click Next. Click Finish, and then click Close. 8. When asked, "Would you like to download newsgroups from the news server you added?" click Yes. 9. In the Newsgroup Subscriptions dialog box, type inetexplorer to display all Internet Explorer newsgroups. Click the newsgroups you're interested in, then click Subscribe, and you're ready to go! If you have a newsreader other than Outlook Express installed, please follow the instructions for your product to access the newsgroups.
