Change password at next login

I have a Windows 2008 domain. Users login using RDP. If I set the flag for
a user "User must
change password at next login", it works perfectly if the person is on XP
client,
but if they are using Vista, the dialog to actually key in your new pasword
never displays. They get the message saying that the password must be
changed. Typically you click ok to that and you get the dialog to change
it. Instead on Vista workstations it just ends.

All updates are installed.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
John

 

The issue is due to Network Level Authentication (NLA) on the newer RDP
clients that by design does not allow you to change your password at logon.
If you add this line to the Default.rdp file, it will disable that.
