Introduction
The Change Password service is a protocol provider that implements RFC 3244 to service Kerberos Change Password and Set Password Protocol requests. Change Password is a request-reply protocol that uses Kerberos infrastructure to allow users to securely set initial passwords or to change existing passwords. The Change Password protocol interoperates with the original Kerberos Change Password protocol, while adding the ability for an administrator to set a password for a new user.
