I receive this error when users log on:

You do not have permission to change your password.

I've followed the instructions below:

However, users who choose not to change their passwords when the Password
Change Notification message appears (by clicking No) are logged on with
their old passwords and then can change their passwords. This system
behavior occurs when the Everyone group hasn't been granted the Change
Password right on the user object. Users can't change their passwords over
the null session connection (anonymous logon relies on the Everyone group to
carry out this action) established between the workstation and a domain
controller. Instead, an authenticated session is required to change a
password (i.e., users must be logged on to change their passwords).To change
the permissions setting for the Everyone group, take the following steps:
1. Start the AD Users and Computers snap-in (Start, Programs, Administrative
Tools, Active Directory Users and Computers).
2. Select the View menu and enable Advanced Features.
3. Right-click the container hosting the user object to which you want to
grant the Change Password right (e.g., Users), then click Properties.
4. Select the Security tab. Ensure that the Everyone group is listed in the
Name box. If it isn't, click Advanced, then add the Everyone group to the
list from the Advanced Access Control Settings dialog box. If the Everyone
group is listed, click Advanced.
5. Click the Everyone group in the list, then click View/Edit to edit the
group's permissions. In the Apply Onto box, click User Objects. In the
Permissions section, select the Allow check box for "Change Password."
6. Click OK to accept the changes.

However users still can't change passwords...Anyone know what I could be
missing?
