Alright folks,  this is a biggie and I need your help.  I work in a 
diagnostic/research lab and we all use macs for day-to-day operations.  
However, the university that we work at has been doing a HIPPA/IT audit 
and said that any computer with patient information must have its 
password expire every 120 days.

I looked this over:

but I don't have any active directory experience, so I think maybe a 
standalone utility is a better option.

This web site says no:

But I'm hoping they are wrong.

Thanks in advance,

Peter
