On Win2k and 2.3k server, is there a way to bulk reset users' passwords?
I'd like to be able to 'select all' and then reset all passwords.

Can that be done?
 
You could use dsquery user to query for the users and then pipe the info
into dsmod to change their passwords:
i.e to change the password for all users starting with the letter u in the
OU=test,DC=contoso,DC=com domain and force them to change password at next
logon:

c:>dsquery user ou=test,dc=contoso,dc=com -name u* | dsmod user -pwd test
-mustchpwd yes
