Title: How To Prevent Users from Changing a Password Except When Required in Windows Server 2003

Objective: The objective of this demo is to teach you how to prevent users from changing a password except when required in Windows Server 2003. Centralized control of user passwords is a cornerstone of a well-crafted Windows security scheme. You can use Group Policy to set minimum and maximum password ages. A minimum password age prevents users from changing passwords too frequently. Frequent password changes can be used by users to circumvent a password-history setting. Users can change their passwords during the period between the minimum and maximum password age settings. Your security design may require that users change their passwords only when they are prompted by the operating system at the maximum password age. You can configure Windows to permit users to change their passwords only when the operating system prompts them to do so. This demo will show you how to do that.
