OLDCMP - puzzling observation

For those of you familiar with this tool used to clean out old unused
computers from an Active Directory:

I used the following command to see all the computers in a particular
OU and what the password age is. There are Windows 2000 and 2003
servers, no workstations:

<!--coloro:blue--><span style="color:blue <!--/coloro-->
>oldcmp -report -age 0 -b ou=servers,ou=it,dc=companyabc,dc=com -format csv -file oldcmp_servers.csv.txt<!--colorc--><!--/colorc-->

The results looked great for the most part, but there were some
computers that did not return a password age at all! The field was
blank. In some cases, the devices were windows servers that were
pingable and responding and in other cases, they were not responding
to a ping.

Any idea why I would receive no value for the password age? I did
receive "0000" for some devices, so I know it's not zero, it's
actually nothing.

thanks
