Hi
I am trying to change the password of an User in an Active Directory
using the samba client tools (samba 3.0.7).
A normal user can change the password using
smbpasswd -r ADSERVERNAME
But now a user forgetts his password, and I want to change it as an user
"ADMINUSER",
who has admin rights in the domain.
Is there a command, weher I can do something like this:
smbpasswd -r ADSERVERNAME USERNAME -U ADMINUSER
The command should print for the ADMINPASSWD of ADMINUSER and for the
new passwd of USERNAME,
who's passwd has to be reset.
net -S ADSERVERNAME -U ADMINUSER rap password USERNAME "" newpass
Does nor work to
If I do an ethereal,
the answer of ADSERVERNAME is
SAMOEMCHANGEPASSWORD (214)
Status: the specified password is invalid (86)
Is it possible to change a userpasswd as admin with the client tools
without knowing the old password
Thank you very much
