AFAIK there is no way to reset forgotten cached credentials without being
able to logon to a network where the domain controller exists to be able to
logon with a reset password. Train them to keep their password written down
in a safe place possibly where it can also be accessed by a trusted user if
need be to give to them. As an emergency backup you could create a regular
user account on the computer with a password that you know that could be
given to them if all else fails.

I am setting up laptops for remote users that do not connect to the domain
for more than a year sometimes. I want to give the domain accounts so
that
when they are in the office, they connect up the network just fine, or if
I
would roll out a VPN I would not have to change their users and move their
profiles and stuff.
The issue I have is if they were to forget their password or want to
change
it, is this possible with cached credentials, or is there some other way
to
do this?
I have the thinkpad t60's with fingerprintreader, but then if the
fingerprint reader stopped working and they cannot remember their
password, I
would be in trouble, unless there is some way for them to change their
password, or for me to remote in over the internet and reset it or
something.
TIA
