Oh ye of the mighty .org, I have a question.
We have a few iPad 2 users at work and we have a 30 day policy on password changes on our exchange. This would not normally be a problem, for example for my iPad 2, I would change the password using my laptop then go into settings on the iPad and change the password in the account there to what I changed it to with the PC, no problems (unless you encounter the password loop that Apple put in there to test us but that is not what this is about)
We have several users who for various reasons do not have a computer/laptop, they just have an exchange account and an iPad 2 and I am wondering how they go around changing their password? Not being a proficient Apple user I just presumed that when the time comes they will get a message pop up saying "Cannot connect" or "Cannot verify" or something similar and then prompt them to change the password, do you think this will happen?
Also, is it possible for the user to change the password FROM THE IPAD before it expires? Remembering that they do not have standard PC or laptop and rarely come into the office.
I am going through the IT bods here but the iPads are a new thing here at work and we are not too familiar with them so I thought I would ask here.
Cheers
