It's worth noting that there is a group of people who have been working for 
some time towards a standardized management protocol based on LDAP.  I'm 
fairly sure some of them read this list, and I'd suggest talking to them 
before going off and doing something from scratch.

The IETF Kerberos WG has also been working on a standardized set/change 
password protocol which is nearly complete.  The new protocol also includes 
features to support management of keys (not necessarily derived from 
passwords).
