I run (or help run) an Active Directory Windows Server 2003 domain and we had a user recently decide they were going to get a mac instead of their normal pc and wanted me to work on getting it setup for the domain. So far I've got it joined and I can access all the file shares after authenticating with the server. Now there is no plans to ever get a OSX server is there any way I can integrate it to where you can login with your domain user account and password and not have to reauthenticate when you logon to the shared directories? Another problem I see is that we have a 90day password expiration rule, however on the Mac if the password expires it doesn't prompt that it has expired and lets the user use the same old password until that grace period is up then locks their account. Is there any way I could make it prompt for change? BTW this is a Macbook Air with OSX 10.5 (latest version).
