The script queries the pwdLastSet attribute of user accounts in AD and the MaxPwdAge property within the domain, then does some time computations and sends an email to those users who are near a password expiration 'event.' Recently, a customer asked for some help implementing a solution for this issue based on a script they'd found on the Microsoft TechNet Script Center. Statistics show that some of the most common calls to the helpdesk are password-related and implementing a process like the one covered here could really make a dent in your helpdesk call volume and costs. What about those BYOD or mobile users or users of web apps/email? More often than not, these users will have to call the helpdesk because they had no idea their domain passwords were going to expire.
Have you ever had a need to configure notifications for user's password expirations but found that existing solutions didn't quite fit the bill? We all know you can use built-in solutions with Windows and Active Directory/Group Policy but this requires users to interactively log-on to a network-based computer. I have been with Microsoft for nearly three years and this is my first blog post. Hi there! Mike Kullish, here. I'm a PFE based out of Minneapolis, MN with a focus on AD, Hyper-V and DFS but I try to help customers with anything on the Windows Desktop and/or Server platforms.
