This can be easily done using a small ADSI script running on the same
server as your Web Interface Server (NFuse).

Here is the ASPX code that will do the trick:
---------------------------------------------
  user = New DirectoryEntry("LDAP://" & userDomain & "/" & userDN)
                user.Invoke("SetPassword", newPassword)
                user.Properties("pwdLastSet").Value() = -1
                user.CommitChanges()
-------------------------------------


Of course you will have write some code for the challenge questions
and lookup the user in the AD using LDAP calls.

Dear All :

I have Citrix 4.0 implemented at my company and a lot of users are
logging to it using the web interface technique...
I need a way to make the users automatically reset their passwords if
they forget it by going through some pre-configured questions and
answers ..

I need some application names which is doing that ...
I saw sort of them in the past but I failed to find them ...
