Re: Password Reset

["Beechey, Jim" <beechey () NORTHWOOD EDU>]

Let me second Bryan's support for Anixis.  We implemented this fall and
have been very pleased.  They also recently released a client for
Windows PCs which provides a reset password button at login which helps
solve the problem of getting access to the web app when the PC requires
authentication.    The button is configured via a GPO to deliver the web
self service page to the user.  This is very helpful in labs or
faculty/staff desktops.

I would take a look at www.anixis.com <http://www.anixis.com/> .  Low
cost, easy to implement with AD as well as upgrade, light footprint, can
be applied to OU's or security groups (i.e. more than one password
policy per domain!).  We have it implemented here: http://mypw.tcu.edu
