Re: user default password checking tool

["Josh Parker" <josh.g.parker () gmail com>]

If you are in an Windows 2003/2000 domain enviroment, you can simply
setup option on the acount to Force a user to change there password
upon the next login. To keep the user from using the same password,
you can set Password History to remember the last password, (the last
3 passwords is a good recomendation) You can also set it to require
complex passwords when they change there password. You can also set
the password age, so they have to change it after a sertain amount of
days.

Hope that helps
