taken from elsewhere:
Reset a user's password. Users forget passwords all the time. Until biometric authentication devices become commonplace, resetting passwords will be part of administrators' jobs. To reset a user's password from the command line, connect through a Telnet session to the appropriate server, and type at the command prompt
net user <username> <password>
inputting the user's new username and password. If you've connected to a member server, this command changes the password in the local accounts database of that server. If you've connected to an Active Directory (AD) domain controller (DC), this command changes the user's password in the AD domain. To change the password for a domain user account, you must specify the /DOMAIN parameter and include the name of your domain. . . .
