That doesn´t work. I set my language to portuguese and the message of expired password is in eng. Can I edit this message?

Thanks,

I am very curious as to why you mention "Windows domain account." It implies that your user account is not local to your machine but instead is managed by a Windows domain controller. Such integration would typically happen only in a corporate setting, where an organization has deployed Microsoft Active Directory and implemented some kind of integration service. These include Samba 3.x with Winbind, Samba 4.0, Centrify, Likewise, and BeyondTrust.

Can you describe your environment in more detail?

Perhaps you are not accessing the local settings with root permission? Open a Konsole and enter
kdesudo systemsettings
and retry the change I recommended.

But, I'm wondering what Steve is possible thinking about, that your machine is in a corporate environment where changes to the platform by users are blocked or reversed?
