Windows 2K server

Two questions.

1) Where on earth do I find the option to change the password expiry to "Does not expire" ??

2) Does anyone know if it's possible to reset all user passwords "en-masse", either through Win2k or some third party app ?? If so, how or which application should I get ?

Many thanks.

Is it a domain password? perhaps that makes a difference. I have no clue personally, lol..it's a little over my head..but I ran across a script... for domain passwords to set them to never expire http://www.experts-exchange.com/Netw..._20880249.html

This guy is saying he changed it to never expire using active directory http://www.tek-tips.com/gviewthread....604/qid/787171

---> How to Turn Off Password Expiration on Windows 2000 Professional in a Workgroup Environment---> http://support.microsoft.com/default...roduct=win2000

1) Right-click My Computer, and then click Manage.

2) Click to expand Local Users and Groups, and then click Users.

3) Double-click the user account that should not have a password expiration, and click to select the Password never expires check box.

maybe that is it?
