You can reset the password for any user in your directory with the following exceptions:
For Simple AD, you cannot reset the password for any user that is a member of either the Domain Admins or Enterprise Admins group except for the administrator user.
For Managed Microsoft AD, you can only reset the password for a user that is in an OU based off of the NetBIOS name that you typed when you created your directory.

For more information about the OU structure for an Managed Microsoft AD directory, see What Gets Created in the Directory Service Administration Guide.
