I assume you're trying to do this programmatically? Wrong forum otherwise...

However, this has nothing to do with programming - it is a system policy enforced by your sysadmins. You will experience the same result if you do it manually.

The problem is that people will change passwords repeatedly until the system allows them to use their old password when they are asked to pick a new one (the system only rembers a specific - configurable - number of passwords). So, due to the inevitable stupidity of humans in general and computer users in particular, they have to be thwarted somehow - hence the minimum password age policy. I even think one day is the default in Active Directory (which would make sense as no sane sysadmin would ever use a smaller value or disable the policy).

In case you are the sysadmin and are unaware of this (which could be excused if you're a developer playing with Active Directory, but not otherwise): You will find this in the default domain policy or the default domain controller policy (not so in my own domain at the moment so I can't check and don't remember which). Look around in the security stuff under computer settings (you will of course need to be a domain administrator in order to mess around with it).

If you have accounts that are to be used by services or other software and that can't change, you have the option of disabling password aging for a particular account (on one of the account property sheets) - after assigning it a *really* long, random and complex password, of course.
