Overview of Password Change Configuration

SharePoint allows you to use Active Directory Services (ADS) or local NT users created on the SharePoint server to manage access authorization; however it does not provide a method for users to change their Active Directory or local NT user account password. Bamboo’s Password Change allows ADS users or local NT users to change their password directly from within your SharePoint site or portal area without having to rely on IIS expiration pages.
