passwd Version 1.2.0 Password Change Utility The passwd utility allows the user to change his/her password on either the local system, or the Domain Controller. Administrators may change anyone's password. Usage and Help Information: --------------------------- usage: passwd [-hl?] [user] Options: h - Help, (this). l - Local, change local password. s - Specify a Server on which to change the password. ? - Usage. Server - The server on which the password is to be changed. User - The user whose password is to be changed. If no user is specified, then the password is changed for the current user. If local is not specified, then the password is changed for the specified user on the Primary Domain Controller. If a Server is specified, it must be of the form: "\\Server". Usage examples: --------------- passwd passwd bill passwd -l pooh passed -s\\PHOENIX Administrator Installation: ------------- Installation is simple; just copy the executable file into a directory listed in the %Path% Environment variable. A Debug Symbols, .DBG, file is also included and should be copied into %SystemRoot%\Symbols\Exe, in order for ntsd, (or windbag, I guess), to find it. Note that the .DBG symbol file is needed only if you want to run the utility under a debugger such as ntsd. The file is not needed for any other reason than to make the internal symbols available to the debug program.
