Normal users accounts do not have permissions to reset other users passwords.
You must grant the appropriate permissions to allow users to use Password Control.
You could create a Password Control Users group and delegate the appropriate
permissions to that group. For more information on delegation, see the Password
Control helpfile.
If you prefer to use a built-in group, the Account Operators group grants all the
permissions required to run Password Control. Please note that this group
also grants other permissions not required by Password Control.
If you are a network admin and have an "every day" account as well as an admin account,
you can run Password Control under your everyday account and use the connect as
feature to run Password Control under the context of your admin user account.
Open the about dialog (Help/About). The about dialog box will show the version
of Password Control installed and will also show the latest version available on
the website (from version 2.1).
User accounts can be hidden from password control by creating a "PasswordControl_Invisible" security group in your domain. Make any users you don't want to display in Password Control a member of this group. A nested membership test is performed so you can
also add other groups to the "PasswordControl_Invisible" group.
You can have Password Control write successful and failed events to the eventlog
by modifying the "AuditFailedEvents" and "AuditSuccessfulEvents" options in the
configuration file. ("PasswordControl.exe.config")
