my bad! However, I already work with a few paid Zoho/ManageEngine software solution and I'll dig into this one to see the pricing of it. Thank you GDaddy! I should have clarified first that I have much more than 50 employees to manage, I said 'a pretty large company' without clarifying the number. My mistake, did not read all the way to the bottom.ĮDIT: another option would be ManageEngine, they have a password reset program call ADSelfServicePlus - free for up to 50 users Opens a new window I can't use the Office 365 password 2-way sync because we have on-premise AD and we don't have Azure AD premium account that allow sync back of password from the Cloud to local AD, that would be a great workaround, but not an option ($) for us. Since our company have a AD password expiration policy, this is a true nightmare for those 12 employees with the Mac that are not bound to AD and I want to fix this now.

I am IT manager for a pretty large company and for several reasons, only a dozen of Mac are NOT bound to AD, mostly because they are remote worker that never comes physically to our offices and only access Windows file server shares through VPN, so they are using local profiles and no AD bind.įormerly in older MacOS versions (I think back to Sierra), when you were going into the network browsing in the Mac Finder and then clicking on a Windows file server, you had a button 'Change Password', but this seem to have been removed in latest MacOS versions.

I searched a lot for this question without success, because obviously changing AD password from a Mac that is bind to AD is a piece of cake, however, how can I do that when the Mac IS NOT BIND to AD domain?
