One of our users on W2K is currently sharing another
user's printer thru the network. This has worked fine for
the last couple of months. Now she is getting a message
stating that her password has expired and even if we reset
it, she cannot see the printer while logged in under her
username (you can see it logged in as Adminstrator). She
can still browse the network, just not access the printer.
Still telling us her password is expired.
 
Does she have a local account on the PC that is physically connected to the
shared printer? Perhaps it is this account password that has expired. If the
password message only comes up when trying to connect to the other computer
to access its shared printer, then I would guess that the password is either
local to that shared PC or the shared PC needs to be rebooted to clear its
cache.
