Java app integrate with AD

Hi all,

I need to create an java app daily password generator to change one of the AD admin accounts password to the formula generated by the java app. I know how to calculate the formula, but how can I output the generated password to the AD account?

Thank you in advance.

    I haven't looked in a while but you may want to explore JNDI. It's probably where you want to start. The JNDI Tutorial

    JNDI is better suited for use with products developed in Java (e.g., directory services from IBM or Oracle). It may not be impossible to accomplish your goal using Java. For AD, however, you will most likely be better off using PowerShell or VBScript.

    If you decide to use PowerShell, the TechNet repository may be a good place to start. You should be able to tweak this template to your liking. Once your script is complete, you should be able to use Scheduled Tasks to run it at your chosen interval.
