Any chance these machines were either added to the domain administratively (not jointed from the machine itself) or had their accounts reset but haven't re-connected yet?

| | Re: What does "password not required" flag means to a machine ? Found this: http://www.servernewsgroups.net/grou...topic8158.aspx Apparently it's a bug, and the the flag doesn't really "mean" anything when applied to a machine account. They'll always set a password whether it's required or not.
