How to Reset Password of User while not connected to Domain using Local Admin Account

How to Reset Password of User while not connected to the Domain using Local Admin Account
(I have the use of a local admin account), and I want to help a user reset their password who has logged in the PC and had their credentials cached, but forgot this password.
In Local Admin Account :
When I go to Control Panel, users, users, manager user ; I cannot see any users in this window except the local admin account, and, so I cannot reset a user password this way.
When I go to lusrmgr.msc, then users ; the local admin account will display only.
If I go to command prompt and type "net user", this will not display any users who have logged in to the computer, and so I cannot use "net user" to reset a password.
I don't want to use any disks, 3rd party programs, or create a VPN connection to the domain. I just want to help a user who calls in and forgets their password.

Hello Keith,
I know this is an old thread but I'm trying to better understand how I could change the domain password while not on the network. What I'm getting from your post is that you:
1. Create a local user account (not a domain user)
2. Login with that local user account
3. Connect to the VPN while logged in as a local user
4. Log out of the local account and login with the domain credentials
Now, my question is based on the assumption that the password created on the local account is the same password that one will use to login to the domain account? Also, is the local user account the same as the domain account?
Thanking you in advance!

Use local admin account to reset local users password?

Everytime I logout or shut down my mac book pro running 10.7.4 I cannot login because the login "shakes" when I put in my password. The local account, userX, is also a mobile account on my home Lion Server network. Even why I try to go through the process of resetting my password using my appleid, the new password doesn't allow userX to logon to the machine, let alone the home network.
Thoughts?

did you see the link? Pertinent info therefrom:
OS X Lion
From the Apple menu choose System Preferences....
From the View menu choose Users & Groups.
Click the lock and authenticate as an administrator account.
Click Login Options....
Click the "Edit..." or "Join..." button at the bottom right.
Click the "Open Directory Utility..." button.
Click the lock in the Directory Utility window.
Enter an administrator account name and password, then click OK.
Choose Enable Root User from the Edit menu.
Enter the root password you wish to use in both the Password and Verify fields, then click OK.

how can reset password of bulk users in one time through AD or script?

Hello Mr. Lovely,
Do you have ActiveDirectory Module which shipped with Windows Server 2008 R2? If you have it, you can complete this task very easily.
#First, you need to import ActiveDirectory Module
Import-Module ActiveDirectory
#Second, generate a SecureString which contains the password.
$securePwd = ConvertTo-SecureString -String "P@ssw0rd!" -Force -AsPlainText
#Third, find the Active Directory users ,and use Set-ADAccountPassword for resetng the password.
Get-ADUser -Filter {Name -like "Test*"} | Set-ADAccountPassword -NewPassword $securePwd
Also, you can review following link for more details about the Active Directory cmdlets.

How to reset password if i forgot my current password

how to reset password if i forgot my current password

If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then maybe the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password. In OS X 10.10 and later, this option also works with FileVault, but only if you enabled it when you activated FileVault. It's not retroactive. Otherwise, see below.
Note: If you've activated FileVault, this procedure doesn't apply. Follow instead these instructions.
Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities window appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar at the top of the screen—not from any of the items in the OS X Utilities window.
In the window that opens, type this:
resetp
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window opens. Close the Terminal window to get it out of the way.
Select the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected. You won't be able to do this if FileVault is active.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.
You should now be able to log in with the new password, but the Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as the login password), there's no way to recover it.

How to Reset Password of Client 800 in SQL server2005 of IDES Ecc6.0

Dear All,
how to Reset Password in SQL server of Client 800 IDES Ecc6.0.
& what will be its password.
with best regards.
Ishtiaq

Hi
Simple logic we have sap* and ddic as default users if you are unable to login to client 800 with any of the user then you need to delete the user sap* from database level so that it will be recreated again and you can login as sap* and password as pass here is the procedure
login to ora<sid>
execute the sql statement
delete from usr02.sapr3 where bname = 'SAP*' and mandt = '800';
commit;
sapr3 is your schema id
You also need to check parameter login/no_automatic_user_sapstar is set to 0 so you can logon as SAP* password pass
If the parameter doesn't exist then maintain in instance profile
/usr/sap/SID/SYS/profiles/SID_DVEBMGS00_Host
Unfortunately you'll need a system restart to enable and disable the parameter
You can also refer to below links

How to reset password on an ipad. I can't access the settings the iPad is locked

How to reset password on an ipad. I can't access the settings the iPad is locked.

If you are talking about the restrictions Passcode - there is no way to reset it. You have to restore the decide to factory settings. If you restore from a backup, and the Passcode is in the backup, that will not work since you will be restoring the Passcode that you cannot remember back onto the device.
The only thing that would work is if your backup was created before you put the Passcode on the iPad. The Passcode would not be in that backup and you could restore from that one.

Hello Aditi,
In AS Java 7.1 and higher you go to short link /nwa and navigate
to Configuration -> Infrastructure -> Java System Properties – Switch to
application tab in second section (Details about <InstanceName>) ->
search for tc~idm~jmx~app.
For 7.0 you have to do that in Visual Admin but I would need to read docu to know where it is too.
But you can find that all in UI installation guide http://service.sap.com/~sapidb/011000358700001233082010E
