Is there a reg key for XP Pro expiry length?

[craigrm2005]

I'm wondering if there's a registry key that indicates how long
between password expiry dates, example 90 days.
I'm thinking about XP Pro in a business environment.

Thanks in advance to to anyone who might know this one.

Since you mention a business environment, it brings up the question of
whether this is a *domain* environment - in which case, this should all be
easily seen/managed on the domain controllers.

If you're talking about standalone workstations in a peer-to-peer network,
not sure where you'd find this info, sorry.

Such a setting is most easily adjusted from within the Local Policy
MMC, rather than messing with the registry.
