Password Expired / Cannot Change Password

I have a Group Policy so that password has to be changed every 70 days.
One two machines when time is up it tells me and when i try to change
password it does not allow me saying I have no rights.
If I change it from server, then I cannot login on machine with new
password, have to change it back to the old.
I disabled group policy but still have this problem!
If I set password never expires from users, still no success!

Can I tell windows server to completly ignore change password?

Server = Windows 2000
Client = Windows 2000

Look in the logs via Event Viewer on those computers to see if any
errors/warnings showing problems with domain access and run the support tool
netdiag on them looking for any problems with DNS, dc discovery, domain
account, or trust/secure channel. Support tools are on the install disk of
the operating system in the support/tools folder. You should be able to ping
the domain controller from those computers by IP address and name. Also use
ipconfig /all on those computers to make sure they are using the proper DNS
servers which must be ONLY domain controllers and never an ISP DNS
