2000 does not allow you to select multiple users at once. They must be selected individually.

"To reset a user password"

Consider using this script if you have a large number of users.

Hi,

No there is no way to do that in the GPOs. But you could use the dsquery
and dsedit tool to change that proprety on all your users at once.

Hope it helps...
