Resetting machine account password

Is resetting the secure channel on a domain member machine the same thing as

resetting the secure channel?

 

Using the <Netdom resetpwd> command, one can reset the password on a domain

controller (which I believe will trigger replication to the other DCs).

 

The <Netdom resetpwd> command is specific to DCs, per the tools description

(via <Netdom resetpwd /?>.

 

However, there is the <Netdom reset> command which is used to reset the

secure channel between a member machine and a specified DC - is the "secure

channel" reset actually just resetting the local machine's password in AD?

Re: Resetting machine account password

 

Check out nltest, I think that is what you are looking for.

 

If you want to check to see if the secure channel between a machine and the

domain is

working properly.

 

If you don't have the support tools installed, install them from your server

install disk.

d:\support\tools\setup.exe

 

nltest /sc_verify:YourDomainName

 

This should verify and if broken reset the trust between the client and the

domain.

 

/sc_reset

Re: Resetting machine account password

 

Paul,

 

Thanks, but I am trying to learn if resetting the secure channel is the same

thing as resetting the machine password. BTW, <netdom verify machinename>

will also verify the secure channel and indicate with which DC the channel

exists.

Re: Resetting machine account password

 

Yes it is more or less the same. To establish a secure channel the machine

has to logon to the domain.
