change password

In the LAN environment which can be office or home network you can change the password of a Windows account from any computer on the network regardless of whether the user account is on a workstation, a stand-alone server or a domain controller Windows. In addition, it makes no difference if you change the password from a workstation, a stand-alone server or a Windows domain controller. This is true for any NT 4.0, W2K, XP Pro and Windows Server 2003.


No need to be connected with the account we want to change your password and do not need to be currently logged on with another user on the same domain. This is particularly useful if you want to change the password for a User Account Database Security Manager, or account (SAM) that is not in the default domain access.

To change the password:

1.Press CTRL ALT DELETE to open the Security dialog box.

2.Press the Change Password button.

3.Insert the username whose password you want to change.

4.In the dialog box, click the computer name or domain name in the drop-down box, or type the computer name or domain name that contains the user account we want to change your password.

p.s. we know the old ;-)!
