| Description | Error changing password. Password expired for user. %ruser = %1 |
| Event Information | According to Microsoft : Cause : This event is logged when error changing password. Resolution : Make sure that the password has not expired An error occurred while attempting to change the user's password because the original password has expired. Typically, Windows users with expired passwords contact the domain administrators for their domains, request temporary passwords that will allow them to log on to the network, and then change their passwords. Users of UNIX-based operating systems should contact their UNIX system administrators for temporary passwords or network access. Verify : To verify the functional state of UNIX to Windows password synchronization, retry UNIX to Windows password synchronization. UNIX to Windows password synchronization is fully operational when the password synchronization succeeds, and functioning with warning conditions present if password synchronization fails for some passwords but succeeds for others. If password synchronization succeeds for some passwords but fails for others, the UNIX to Windows Password Synchronization Service is likely fully operational, but there might be account- or computer-specific configuration problems preventing password changes from being synchronized on UNIX-based hosts. |
