Dear Warren

First you have done the wrong networking with 25
computers. if you are having 25 computer then you should
have one domain controller in between 25 computer.

well if you able to login into each computer via
Administrator account then go to user Account option and
select the Advanced option at top one and then select the
Advanced option in Advanced user managment. when you click
it it will show one windows that is Local User and Groups
windows. Select the user one by one and go to properties
of that user there you will get one option password never
expires that may be untick. make one tick and save it and
come out one by one. logff from administrator and then
again login from that user which password setting you hav
changed.

If this method is not effective then contact via mail.
