We have seen VM's crap out because the hidden domain machine password
expires, but I haven't seen it happen for too many password changes- thanks

Subject: [THIN] OT: VMWare, Computer Accounts, and Snapshots
FYI - we use one of our VMs for testing application deployment. It seemed
that after a period of time when I would revert to a snapshot on that VM
that I could no longer log in to the domain. It turns out the password on
the computer account had changed too many times. To prevent this, I made the
following change in the registry of that computer:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Netlogon\Parameters]
"DisablePasswordChange"=dword:00000001
Anyway, hope this may help somebody else that might run into the same
problem.
