The password can be changed with NET USER and the unlock can be done
from CUSRMGR.
Enjoy,
Erik
(Details below)
*****************
NET USER
[username [password | *] [options]] [/DOMAIN]
username {password | *} /ADD [options] [/DOMAIN]
username [/DELETE] [/DOMAIN]
NET USER creates and modifies user accounts on computers. When used
without switches, it lists the user accounts for the computer. The
user account information is stored in the user accounts database.
This command works only on servers.
username Is the name of the user account to add, delete, modify, or
view. The name of the user account can have as many as
20 characters.
password Assigns or changes a password for the user's account.
A password must satisfy the minimum length set with the
/MINPWLEN option of the NET ACCOUNTS command. It can have
as
many as 14 characters.
* Produces a prompt for the password. The password is not
displayed when you type it at a password prompt.
/DOMAIN Performs the operation on a domain controller of
the current domain.
/ADD Adds a user account to the user accounts database.
/DELETE Removes a user account from the user accounts database.

Subject: Password Change Utility
Anyone know of a password changing utility I might find for changing
passwords and unlocking accounts for helpdesk personnel that use Windows
NT 4.0 Workstation? I researched it and Active Directory Users &
Computers can be used for Windows 2000 users, but the other set of users
that need to change passwords cannot go to Windows 2000 just yet, so I
am looking for a small utility for them, if one exists. Please let me
know if you know of any solutions, shareware or not. Thanks.
