We have an external user who connects to one of our servers only over Remote Desktop. The server has a local user account set up for him. The account security policy follows our normal conventions, which include a password expiry notification if the expiry date is coming up in less than 14 days.
Unlike our normal users, the remote user does not see the notification bubble when the password is about to expire. It's unclear what is causing this. The server is constantly online.
Are there any specific Group Policy settings, workarounds or known issues that affect notifications being shown over RDP connections?
Best Answer
Check group policy setting Interactive Logon: Prompt user to change password before expiration in
Computer Configuration\Policies\Windows Settings\Security Settings\Local Policies\Security OptionsIt should work regardless of the type of user session. Please check resulting Group Policy on your RDP host to check that this setting not changed.
