I have an NT domain with XP desktops. The policies are
local on the XP desktops. I want to change the password
period from "never expires" to "expires every 90 days". Is
SMS 2 capable of deploying the change to the local XP
policies and how is this done?

Thanks, Tim
 
Try the following command.
net accounts /maxpwage:90

If this does what you are looking for then you could create a quick bat
file w/ this command and send it via SMS.
