How to enable password changes in OWA

In Exchange 2000 the password change feature was enabled by default, due to the Trustworthy Computing Initiative, Microsoft disabled this feature in Exchange 2003.

The Lazyadmin explains how on his website:

The change password feature can be enabled and you can allow your users to change their passwords via OWA again. Before you begin, you must have set up the IISADMPWD virtual directory already.
Once IISADMPWD is installed, it is a matter of a small registry change on order for this to take effect. Open up the registry on the Exchange 2003 server and drill down to:

HKLM/System/CurrentControlSet/Services/MSExchangeWeb/OWA

Locate the REG_DWORD called DisablePassword and change the value to "0". Close the registry editor and log into Outlook Web Access.(continue at source)
