Virto Password Changer Web Part for SharePoint 2007 enables Active Directory (AD) users and users with general accounts (FBAP) to change themselves their passwords when they are logged onto SharePoint Site.

This web part is indeed helpful if there are a lot of AD accounts in your system, and users need to change their passwords from time to time due to security or other reasons. Remote AD users can also change passwords without any difficulties.  

With Virto Password Changer system administrator does not need to change all the passwords manually anymore. He just adds the web part to intranet or extranet SharePoint Portal. Then authorized users can easily manage their passwords without the administrator's help.

When user requests the web part the system automatically determines the category, the user belongs to — Active Directory or other Form Based Authentication Provider (FBAP). Then the user types his old password and a new one.

The web part transfers this data to AD or other FBAP base, and the new password is saved in the database. In case a user has advanced rights, he can change not only his own password but other users' passwords as well. It is also possible to publish password requirements in the web part. If a user types an incorrect old password, or his password does not meet the requirements, a warning message will be displayed. 

If you user forget his password, or pasword is expired, he needs to recover it first and then change to new one. This can be done with Virto Password Reset Web Part, which is a essential part of SharePoint Password management system.

Virto Password Changer is now available in English and Spanish Languages. French, German and Russian Localizations are coming soon!
