"net user XXX /expires:never" does not work in Active Directory mode

Question

I'm trying to make a user's password never expire, so I executed the following command in the domain controller:

net user admin /expires:never

And it succeed.

But months later, the password still gets expired, what should I do in command line?

Answer 1

You should use AD cmdlets to do this:

    Set-ADUser -Identity username -PasswordNeverExpires $true

Answer 2

Adding the /domain argument should work:

net user admin /expires:never /domain
