Environment

Novell Client 2 SP4 for Windows

Situation

As I understand it, you are asking if there is a way to limit the choices of resources for which the password should be changed when viewing the "Password Change Administration's" "Change Password" page.

Resolution

Other than the "don't include Windows resources of any kind" (Synchronize Windows Password = OFF), there isn't any more "fine grained" filter that lets you just exclude specific Windows and/or eDirectory server names.

Additional Information

In the password synchronization that occurs during expiration (as opposed to "voluntary password change"), the display is effectively filtered for "things I'm connected to that were using the same password as the one which has now expired."
