Re: AD self service password reset ?

["Gallese, Brady T." <gallese () SUSQU EDU>]

All,

Over winter break, we installed Web Active Directory's People Password.  
(http://www.webactivedirectory.com/products/peoplepassword/).  We only use it for students at this time, but it has 
been working well, and was easy to deploy.  Students can now unlock their own account, reset their password if they 
forgot it, or reset the pw if it expired.  You can pre-populate the questions/answers with data you already have (we 
used last 4 of SSN and DOB), or choose to do an enrollment process where students choose their own questions/answers.  
Additionally, it can send out e-mails to students warning them that their passwords will expire or have expired.  We 
demo'd/eval'd a few products and found this one to have the features we needed, for the right price.

Thanks,
Brady

I would be interested as well.  Could I add “What are you using for your HelpDesk”.  We need to know users pwords to 
work on their PC’s and then have the user change it on next boot.  This causes a lot of frustration as our users might 
visit the Helpdesk 2 or 3x in a week.  Different pword each time…

Thanks

We are looking as well.
Can anyone weigh in on the self-service functionality in Forefront Identity Manager and if it is overkill to use that 
product for this?

Thanks!

Anyone using a (shrink wrapped) AD self service password reset utility for student, staff, & faculty accounts that 
would be willing to share experiences, thoughts, etc?  Does it work with single sign on?  If so, home grown or shrink 
wrapped?  Please contact me off-list if desired.
Regards,
Bob
