Open a command line (Start → Run → cmd
) and type the following commands:
dsmgmt
ds behavior
connections
connect to server localhost
quit
allow passwd op on unsecured connection
list current ds-behavior
quit
quit
The whole thing should look like this (empty lines added for readability)
C:\Windows\system32>dsmgmt
dsmgmt: ds behavior
AD DS/LDS behavior: connections
server connections: connect to server localhost
Binding to localhost ...
Connected to localhost using credentials of locally logged on user.
server connections: quit
AD DS/LDS behavior: allow passwd op on unsecured connection
Successfully modified DS Behavior to reset password over unsecured network.
AD DS/LDS behavior: list current ds-behavior
Password operations on unsecured connection: Allowed.
AD DS/LDS behavior: quit
dsmgmt: quit
To undo the change, open dsmgmt
again and follow the steps. Instead of allow
, use deny passwd op on unsecured connection
.
