I support a few farms at my company. In the past, In Keyshot Network Rendering 5 and 6, I was able to create standard users, set a generic password, then instruct the user to log in and change their password. Because this app has no AD/LDAP authentication and everyone is a local account, it makes it harder to manage. The company I work for takes their security seriously. Anyways, in the past standard users were able to log in and change their password. Now in 7, I don't see how a standard user can change their password. Giving them access to "Manage users and groups" will allow them to edit their account and pick a new password, however that also allows them to create users and modify other accounts. This was never an issue before 7, I really don't like what they did with 7. I had to recreate all my users because no one thought to include a tool to import/export users from 5/6 to 7.
Maybe I'm doing this all wrong, but this all worked fine before 7. I could give them access to "Manage users and groups" temporarily, then revoke it, but why the change? It all worked fine before, if it ain't broke don't fix it.
