The code is working fine for 1 user if I eliminate the for loop as follows: Set objGroup = GetObject("LDAP://" & GROUPDN) objFile.WriteLine "Executed at " & Now() & vbCRLF objFile.WriteLine "Enumerating members of " & objGroup.distinguishedName & ":" & vbCRLF 'For Each member in objGroup.member Set objMember = GetObject("LDAP://CN=Tom,OU=Dev,DC=BKEXCH,DC=COM" & member) objFile.WriteLine objMember.distinguishedname strDomain = Mid(objMember.distinguishedname,InStr(objMember.distinguishedname, "DC=")) numdays = GetMaximumPasswordAge (strDomain) Call ProcessUser (numDays) 'Next I have around 100 users in 1 OU.

If there is only one member in a group, it won't be returned as a collection. You can work around this by retrieving the attribute with the GetEx method, which always returns the value(s) as an array. If there is only one member in the group you can verify the existing code by simply adding someone else to it. Neal, how many users do you have in the group?

You can just copy and paste it from there.

Users can still change their password in IIS7 through OWA, but I believe it doesn't use the iisadmpwd files that are in \windows\system32\inetsrv. Originally, I did customize the aexp2b.asp page to obfuscate it from hacker attempts and to allow only authorized users in a particular group to change their password. I have since opened it to everyone that has logged into OWA. There are articles about implementing iisadmpwd in IIS6 for OWA. If you can't find them, or still need help, let me know.

How did you make the webpage that you use to have users change their own passwords? I am needing to do something similar. Thank you. Thank you for this script.
