I've asked that many times.  And been told that it is a requirement.

Why do they need the ability to reset passwords on protected accounts?

Subject: Delegation question

Currently our helpdesk staff have the ability to reset passwords for all user 
accounts, including domain admin accounts. Our internal auditors want us to 
take away the ability of helpdesk staff to change domain admin passwords, but 
not to remove their ability to reset passwords for users in "protected groups" 
that's where I'm running into a wall. theoretically if all the domain admin 
accounts were in one OU I could do this by revoking access to that OU, but 
unfortunately that is not the case and I don't think it's possible the way 
things are setup right now (service accounts in domain admins, etc...). What 
I'm afraid of is that something will break if I move those accounts, 
specifically the service accounts.

Any thoughts  on this?
