Force Password change (Delegate control)

With the MS article:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;en-us;296999, Select "Reset
Password", Read pwdLastSet, Write pwdLastSet", I will able to delegate "reset
/ force password change" to staff.

Questions:
The option "User must change password at Next Logon" is only available in
the User's property, Account options area.
What sub-set of attribute can be selected to make this "User must change
password at Next Logon" option availabe in the Reset password windows. (In
the MMC, Right-click user acccount, Reset Passsword...)

Thanks,

Vincent
 
Hi, Joe,

Thanks for the reply.
By the way, what is "WP"? I have selected "Read,Write" on "pwLastSet". But
that "User must change password at Next Logon" option was gray out in the
Reset password windows. or like you mention, is a bug?

Thanks,

Vincent
 
One more thing, I thought it works but not. Even "force password change"
option is available in the Account property page, i selected it. That does
not force the user to change the password.

It must have some way to delegate this function.

Thanks,

Vincent
 
Yep, been on the shelves since late January.

It is selling like hotcakes and I am getting a ton of positive feedback.

You can use scripts or command line tools...

For instance

admod -b userdn pwdlastset::0

will expire an ID.

Very cool. I will look for it.

There hasn't been an AD book worth buying in YEARS.

(And earlier editions of your book were one of only two
books I ever really liked.)
