I need to set up a windows server 2008 in a virtual machine as demo system to show some apps which are only running on ws2008 with Active Directory.
Since this demo is run infrequently, first the one showing the system always needs to remember the logon password, and quite often is greeted with "your password has expired, pick a new one now" dialog.
Both is cumbersome, especially so since the VM is not connected to anything - how can I switch off the required password for windows server 2008 AD?
I changed the security in the AD group policy to no avail, and the local security policy is readonly, I can't change the values there.
