I am running some group policies but none on the time it
takes for the users to change their passwords. For some
reason they are being asked to change their passwords
every two weeks but I have nothing setup for that. I
have looked through the GP's and found nothing setup for
that setting, help...

Thx in advance,
Drew
 
You have to make this change in the Default Domain Security Policy Snapin.

Start-> Settings --> Control Panel --> Administrative Tools

On the DC use Net Accounts to view the current setting. Check the data and
time between workstation and client
 
Checked the settings there and nothing is set.

Interesting, it says there that the time limit is set for
45 days for renewal but I don't know where that was/is
set.

Make sure the default domain policy section for password policy is defined.
If it is set to not defined the setting are old. Run secedit /refreshpolicy
machine_policy /enforce on the DCs and then reboot.
