Automating Password reset without shell usage
Our application runs on AIX and the users of the application do not have a way to land at the prompt/shell by any means. When they login to the box, the application opens up directly. I would like to know of a way to automate the password reset process for these user ids, without them having to call the support center. Any help/suggestion please.
