I suspect it depends on how long a particular version is running ? Is that
possible ? On my play machine that I am testing for a computer lab next
year, I update pretty often and don't need to do the above. However, on two
production machines that may go some months without being upgraded, I most
certainly need to do that with the NT's. When does the NTWS decide it must
change its passwd ? And more importantly, why does it so decide ?
