We're currently using Banner's/Luminus password reset function - and it's been pretty horrible. We're looking for something a lot simpler, more bullet-proof, integrates with AD, non-open source (I'd like to be able call one place for support, rather than relying on distribution lists....;-).....any success stories out there?

These questions are of the student's own design; however, we provide guidance and suggest they use passwords that are easy for them to remember, but hard to guess by someone else.

How many questions do you require students to answer in order to reset their passwords? And any other relevant insight and wisdom would be appreciated as well.
