To Resolve:

  1. Obviously, have the user reset their password. Most of the time, they already have but have not rebooted.

  2. Try to remap the drives manually. Run => \(ShareName). When you go to enter credentials it will say something indicating an expired password.

  3. Have the user reboot their computer. Upon login, the tokens will be reauthenticated and the user will be allowed to access network resources.
