I actually had a client with the very same issue. They needed to have multiple people use the same login and didn't want any of them changing their password .<br><br>This module may do the job <a href="http://drupal.org/project/noreqnewpass">http://drupal.org/project/noreqnewpass</a><br>
<br>It didn't for me -- I can't exactly recall why, but I think it was because I only needed it for one account -- but it was very easy to do this using the hook form alter in a custom module, where you first check for that form, and then for the user uid. If it's the account in question you just use the form api to lock the password field and through up a message explaining why -- or alternatively you could just redirect the user.<br>

Hi All,<br>
<br>
I work for a college (drupal 6). They want all of the nursing students to be<br>
able to login using the same username and password that will allow them to<br>
access only nursing tagged content (video pages). I got the access issue to<br>
work with tac-lite. But have had no luck in researching my problem.<br>
<br>
My problem is:<br>
<br>
How do I restrict a username (ex. Nursing) from accessing the<br>
user/(number)/edit and going to the Account Information section where they<br>
can change the email and reset the password? I don't want one student to be<br>
able to block out 100+ fellow students. That just seems like asking for<br>
trouble.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Holly Ferree<br>
<br>
PS On a related note...Is there a good module to play movie files or do I<br>
even need one with Drupal 6?<br>
<br>
