I guess if all else fails

Just create a custom Login page

Admin -> Site Settings -> Advance Settings -> Page Management

And than on that custom login page just build a Forgot Password feature that does a reset :-/

But it'd be nice if you could just tell DNN to use Password reset instead of E-Mail passwords.
Where it like sends you some randomly generated password you can use...

I just found this while I was going through some things on our production site. ResetPassword in the web.config is a setting so that the admin can reset the user's password.

if that makes sense...

So basically from what I can tell DNN doesn't offer a "Reset Password" functionallity that can be enacted by a user.

The Forgot password functionallity only works if the password is stored in Clear Text or can be Decrypted from it's stored value to a something that can be e-mailed in clear text back to the user...

I haven't tested with a hashed password setting. I do know it works with the default "Encrypted" setting.
