iis security:
I see a few posts but not eneogh to help me.

I want to setup a password change utility for my SharePoint 2003 external
clients by providing a link on there site.

Is IISPWD supported in WIN2K3 and IIS6?
If so where do I find IISPWD (can't find it in the IIS 6 resource kit)
How do I deploy it? Is there a KB with the steps? (can you provide it)

it states that it can be used for changing local account passwords, I need
something that would allow users to change there domain account passwords
using IISADMPWD

ok Thanks I see that it does now.

Just one more question, I see the folder and will following instructions on
setting it up in IIS that are documented but what about this stuff

To set the PasswordChangeFlags value in the IIS metabase, do the following:
From a command prompt browse to the C:\Inetpub\Adminscripts directory.
Type adsutil.vbs, and then press the ENTER key. If this is the first time
that Adsutil.vbs has been run, you may get error messages stating that
Cscript is not registered. Follow the prompts and choose Yes to register
Cscript.
Type adsutil.vbs set w3svc/1/PasswordChangeFlags [value].

w3svc/1 represents the Default Web Site and [value] can be set to one of the
following options:
0 - SSL connection required
1 - Password changing allowed on non-secure ports.
2 - Password changing disabled.
3 - Password changing disabled. (Undocumented)
4 - Advance notification of password expiration disabled.

I have SSL on my server, and I wanted password changing to be enabled not
disabled, and most of my users for this server have non expiring so I just am
asking do I need to do stuff when it come to "PasswordChangeFlags" or can I
just create a virtual directory and configure it like the first part of this
article and just skip this whole thing about changing flags?

Thanks

Well, you can test it out. default value is 0. so SSL is required.
