Since today we have problem, that password server does not work anymore. For example 3020 modell with firmaware 8.5_017 a user with expired password logon and instead of PasswordServer opens via RDP they get popup-window on ThinOS that password expired and ask for new password + confirm password but this does not work also.
Does PasswordServer command in wnos.ini files does not work with latest firmware?
Make sure the storefront server is configured to allow password changes "At any time". The device will leverage storefront to be told when to change password for a user, and a dialog box will appear and allow the user to change password, without having to establish a session against a user.
This is the complete config and this was working all the time. Now after upgrade firmware the part of the passwordserver in case of expired password does not work anymore. The time before if a password expired and user try to login with old password an RDP session to one of the passwordserver etablish and on these machine they can change their domain password. We don´t use AccountSelfService on our Citrix farm.

Thanks. I already change this and and I can also confirm that storefront server configured password changes to "At any time", but still does not work.
If user with expired password try to logon to Wyse Box, ThinOS open a popup-windows and confirm that password expired and ask to change to new one. But after set new password and confirm new password, nothing happens and ThinOS return to normal Logon Window again. Still can not logon with old or new password and we get into a loop.
Any other ways to implement password change servers? Until we upgrade to latest firmware it works fine with PasswordServers connection via RDP.

You may want to reconsider posting your entire INI. There are probably some things in there you dont want public.
Since you are using Citrix and Storefront I would suggest changing the device to use Storefront mode
PnliteServer=http://hdx.hq.leschaco.org Storefront=yes
remove the passwordserver= line
Add passwordnotify to your Sessionconfig=ICA line
SessionConfig=ICA PasswordExpireNotify=yes SessionReliability=yes
Make sure the storefront server is configured to allow password changes "At any time". The device will leverage storefront to be told when to change password for a user, and a dialog box will appear and allow the user to change password, without having to establish a session against a user.
