Well it is the same in 2K and K3. You give the following permissions
 
WRITE lockoutTime
CA  Reset Password      
 
You can do that with subinacl or adsiedit or ADUC (using dssec.dat mods).
 
All permissioning in AD should be to security groups and you add people to security groups. One thing you don't want to do that I have been seeing a lot of lately is 10 different groups with reset password. Secure the resource with a resource specific group and then add people/groups to that resource group.... I.E. If you have some people that can unlock, some can reset, have two groups. One for unlock, one for reset. If people who can unlock can reset, use one group.
 
You should do these delegations at the OU level, not piecemeal user by user.

Subject: [ActiveDir] Delegation of Control Wizard

We are looking to give our helpdesk only the rights to reset passwords and unlock accounts.  We found that in Win2k that this was difficult to do using the Delegation of Control Wizard, so we did it using a security group.  But now, I’ve been reading that it should be much easier in Win2k3.  Does anyone know the exact permissions that we would need to give our helpdesk so that the only thing they can do reset passwords and unlock accounts?

 

Thanks.
