Hi,
I have windows NT4.0 Domain, IIS 5 installed on Win2k Server.
Want to enable password change utility IISADMPWD. but no
matter what I try its not working.. Is anyone knows any
other utility on the web? Anyone using any third party
utility..
Thanks

[quoted text, click to view]

if the error is something like that users get redirected to:
https://hostname/_AuthChangeUrl?http://hostname/protecteddirectory
and that comes up "page unavailable",

the answer lies within the error message, specifically "https" -
you probably don't have SSL installed on your server.

A simple hack would be to modify the htr templates in
C:\WINNT\System32\inetsrv\iisadmpwd to use http instead of https.

Or get a cert from www.verisign.com - they have free trials.
