If you are using a Windows based domain with Active Directory, you can
force the users to change their password at first logon.

Subject: user default password checking tool

hello all!!

In my company when we create a new user he is given an initial
password.But then he is told to change the password.The password is
initial of the employee name followed by 123..
for vijay shetti it willl be vs123...

We have a domain based environment.I want to check now how many users
have not changed their initial password using some tool that gives me
list of usernames whose password has 123 in the end.


We follow the same procedure for creating outlook mail password.If there
is any tool/script that also helps me find out this then it will greatly
help me.


Waiting for your reply,
Pavan.
