question about Active Directory

Hello Gentlemen!

I have a scenario. I work in a MS windows Active Directory network. ok,..let me make long story short. Basically when user's log on to our domain, when their password has expired, it will notify them and prompt them to change it. when they key in the current password and key in the new password and key it in again in the confirm field, they will get a message reading: Domain Controller could not be reached!?

I beleive there is a MS fix/ Patch to this, can someone lead me to the right direction?!

Thank you in Advance.

It could be a lot of things, have you used netdiag to troubleshoot the problem?

You need to install it from the support tools directory of your windows CD.

When PC's can't find the DC it is usually name resolution that's the problem, check your DNS is all correct.
