We use a tool call FastPass synch. The tool synchronizes the user's Windows AD password and the iSeries password. The program monitors for Windows AD password changes whether made using CTRL-ALT-DEL, an admin tool, or another method and then 'sends' the new password to our iSeries. We set the iSeries expiration to be slightly longer than Windows and then just manage from Windows.
Works fairly well for our folks.

Subject: [MAPICS-L] Password Changes
We require password changes every 90 days. Ideally, we want our AD passwords to match the Mapics password. And, we would like them both to expire at the same time. We currently expire both every 90 days, but they soon get out of sync.
Is there a way to change the password in AD and then pass it to the Iseries?
Or, is there a simple way to change the password in Mapics, similar to Ctrl-Alt-Dlt in AD? Our Mapics users do not have access to green screen, only client.
