Can anyone recommend a solution for allowing users to update their own Phone, Address, etc info in AD?

Along the lines of a website they visit, sign into, and then add their changes.

If you have Exchange (2007+?), OWA can let users do that.

Alternately:
C:\Windows\System32\rundll32.exe dsquery,OpenQueryWindow

From there, each user can update their own info (admins can do anyone's).

We're using O365 hosted up at MS. Was thinking Forefront Identity Manager could do some/all of this. But I'm not sure.

Supposedly it can but I haven't used that so I can't tell that it can with 100% certainty.

Are your user accounts synced with AD to O365 (DirSync / FIM), or are the user accounts hosted on O365 itself?

If the user accounts are hosted in an internal AD and synced, then any of the methods for allowing users to update their own internal info are still applicable. The changes will just sync during the regular DirSync / FIM update. The way Snowknight26 posted should work (it used to, bur I haven't done it since XP).....But there are free Web based utilities that provide nice interfaces too (run on a local IIS server)....
