Rozzer Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 Has anyone got something like this setup? I don't quite fancy giving staff the access to using active directory MMC is their a easy option where staff get a drop down box of pupils names and they just reset their password? Thanks Ross
russdev Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 now i se one of these somewhere will have a dig around and see what can found russ
_Rob_ Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 Have a look at Password Control Some of my schools use it, and it appears to work for them. Rob. 1
webman Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 Pass Manager from MST Software might do the trick.
apeo Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 You could do it through IISADMPWD, which is included in IIS 4.0+ but you need to set it up. Link below give instructions on how to get it to work, just ignore the sections about exchange. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;297121
Rozzer Posted January 31, 2006 Author Posted January 31, 2006 Thanks guys gonna give some of these a try Ross
Rozzer Posted January 31, 2006 Author Posted January 31, 2006 Have a look at Password Control Some of my schools use it, and it appears to work for them. Rob. That one seems to be the best so far. Any suggestions on giving the ICT staff permissions to be able to reset student passwords only? Can this be done? Ross
apeo Posted January 31, 2006 Posted January 31, 2006 Just delegate control of the OU the students resides it.
rj_mayer Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 We do this through our Staff Intranet. Any member of staff can change a student password through the PHP front end, logged in as themselves. This then calls a VB Script at the server and makes the LDAPS change. I would say it's reduced the password change 'visitor' numbers to the ICT Office by at least 80% and has been highly praised by all staff who've used it for its simplicity. One reason why it's so simple is that it pulls the student's DOB from SIMS and sets the password to DDMMYY, not even requiring the student to leave their seat. The only people it hasn't gone down well with are the students who like the excuse to leave the room!
chriscubed Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 Sounds useful rj_mayer, any chance you could post the php/VB scripts you use for it?
fiza Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 Thats the kind of thing I am looking for. How about it RJ_Mayer??? Will you post the code?
fiza Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 Plexer, I want the Teachers to be able to do it for their students. Not the students to do it themselves.
Trojan Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 Just create a taskpad using the mmc, restriced to what you want them to do. No need for extra software.
fiza Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 Thanks Trojan, I could but I was trying to take the lazy admin route..
plexer Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 SSPR can do both of those. Not by using a drop down at the moment but by entering the username they wish to reset it for. Ben
fiza Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 Plexer, Where can I find SSPR. I searched the thread but there seem to be various attachments. If you can point me to the latest working SSPR I would appreciate it.
