I have an XP workstation that is not part of a domain. It is a member of a workgroup. When I try to login under one user, I get the error message, "Your account has expired. Please contact your system administrator".

I have multiple users setup on the workstation, so I am able to login, but I can't find out why it's expired. I can't find a local group policy for it anywhere and I went through all of the local users settings, and couldn't find anything.

Any ideas on how to fix this???

net user username
//SHOWS USER ACCOUNT EXPIRATION

net user username /EXPIRES:NEVER
//SETS THE ACCOUNT TO NEVER EXPIRE
