Self Service Reset Password Management (from here on the abbreviation 'SSRPM' will be used) is an application which allows users to reset their own (Active Directory) passwords. SSRPM is divided into three main software components, knowingly: The SSRPM Admin Console The SSRPM Service (with the SSRPM Database) The SSRPM User Client Software (the SSRPM Enrollment Wizard, the SSRPM Reset Wizard and the SSRPM GINA or SSRPM Credential Provider (when running Windows Vista))
The installation of SSRPM consists of the following steps: The installation of the SSRPM Admin Console, the SSRPM Service and finally the SSRPM User Client Software. The SSRPM User Client Software must be installed on each client workstation of all end-users which will use SSRPM. Instead of installing the software manually on the client workstations separately, it can be distributed and installed automatically on all client workstations.
This can be accomplished by using a so-called Group Policy Object or GPO, and can save a lot of time (especially with larger networks). The SSRPM User Client Software can be upgraded and removed centrally by using the same GPO as well. This document describes how the SSRPM User Client Software can be installed, upgraded and removed automatically from the client computers in your network by using a GPO.
