Active Directory Web-Based Password Reset

[Jason Brooks <jbrooks () longwood edu>]

We are looking at implementing a web-based password reset system for our 
entire campus.  This would allow us numerous enhancements and security 
benefits without requiring a 24 hour help desk staff.  I know that there 
are disadvantages to such a system.  Our initial plan is to develop one 
in-house.  So doing, we don't want to reinvent the wheel, or follow others 
into known pitfalls.  So, what I am requesting is any advice, war stories, 
suggestions, pitfalls, etc you can muster.

Thanks,
Jason
