Hi folks, got a quick question about GOP's in Server 2008 R2.

Is there a way on a container that I could set a GPO that would force reset all the users passwords (One time occurance) held within that container only? The last admin just used the default domain password because students didn't have a login for Office 365 and we are introducing that this school year to the school community at large.

Thx.
 
It would have to be done with PowerShell (mark all user account to change password on next logon). I don't have the exact commands handy but you could research it.
 
You don't even need Powershell if they are all in the same exact OU.
Highlight all accounts, right-click, "Account" tab, check "User must change password at next logon"
 
dsquery user | dsmod user -mustchpwd yes
This command force all the users must change their passwords on next logon, CAUTION its include Domain Administrator also.

You can also use "ou" for a group of users instead of "user"
