You can use System.DirectoryServices to change the user's password by
invoking the ChangePassword method. There are some docs here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/sds/sds/managing_user_passwords.asp?frame=true
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/sds/sds/troubleshooting_authentication_problems_on_asp_pages.asp?frame=true
There are some weird issues that crop up with ChangePassword and
SetPassword, but those questions are probably better asked
microsoft.public.adsi.general
