User is asked to change password on first logon and does not have the right
Have asked that users change their password on first logon on a windows 2000 server. When they change it they are told they do not have permission to change their password. As far as I can tell, they should be able to. I am kind of in a catch 22 here, does anyone have any idea what I might have done?

In AD, you may also need to find the user account in AD.
Check properties->permissions->a dvanced
There should be an entry saying that user "SELF" has the right to change password for the account
The group "Everyone" Should also have permission to change password for the user account (I'm not inventing, is documented by microsoft)

I assume that BOTH 'User must change password at next logon' and 'User cannot change password' are not checked....
This is a documented issue at Microsoft.
