I help manage several networks, and get a lot of password reset request for students and such. So instead of making some of the staff admins, I found a creative way of giving them the ability to reset passwords. This is obviously for Active Directory domains only, and requires the AD.au3 UDF. They must be part of the group listed in the ini(if you use my method), and the group must have the delegate permission for setting a user's password in AD. Search for Delegate Control of an OU. Also, if you log to a server share like I did, make sure both share and NTFS permissions are opened up. Only tested on Server 2003, 2008, and Win 7 I'm open to constructive criticism, especially if anyone know another way for having the input field recognize that the enter key was pressed.
