I switched that to match the win2k kerberos way of doing things, but at
my production site, I switched it back (because I needed 'must change at
first logon' to produce as useful an error message as possible).

I think this was the right thing to do, but should we give paranoid
admins the ability to disable an account without still revealing it's
password to brute-force attacks?
