Yet another way to get Active Directory Password Expiration

I know we’ve posted a few times on this topic but I came across another script that retrieves the Active Directory password expiration. The main difference is that this script allows you to fileter, sort, export, or group the results of the query.

If you are looking for a tool to send email reminders to your users before their password expires check out http://www.webactivedirectory.com and our PeopleMinder product which completely automates this process!

See the link below for a great script that uses Powershell to determine when Active Directory passwords will expire. Web Active Directory, LLC also has a product called PeopleMinder that automates the notification of your end users, specific user groups, etc of an upcoming Active Directory password expiration, but if you want to make your own script here’s a great start at that.

Active Directory Password Expiration Notification

I’ve been in organizations where employees worked remotely either on their own computers or only connected over VPN connections periodically. I’ve also been a consultant and used my own laptop on a corporate domain and not had my laptop as a member of the domain. The problem with these users (and I’ve been one) is that they never receive notification that their password is going to expire, then inevitably the password expires and the only way to get back in to the domain is to call the helpdesk and have the password set (can’t use reset password when users are coming in via VPN). Now there are a couple ways to deal with this.

Use PeoplePassword to allow end users to have self service password reset so they can fix their own password issues when they occur
Use PeoplePassword and PeopleMinder to send users email notification that their password is going to expire prior to it actually expiring and allow users to change their password prior
