I work as a technician in a school which has just had Windows 2000 server installed. We have 6 groups of users (1996, 1997...etc) with approx 150 students in each of these groups. When each of the students accounts were setup, on Properties of each student in ADS in Account Options the 'Password Never Expires' box was left unchecked. Now all the students are being prompted to change password approx every 30 days (which can be a nightmare with kids!)
 
My problem is how can i select this option without having to individually check it for each student as there is alomost a 1000 of them. Can i do it by group??
I have looked but cannot not seem to see how its done. Are there any 3rd party tools which i may need??
