Or how can I reset without knowing the current one (user forgot password)? If you want to change a password using the UserManager but you do not want to supply the user’s current password, you can generate a password reset token and then use it immediately instead. string resetToken = await UserManager.GeneratePasswordResetTokenAsync(model.Id); IdentityResult passwordChangeResult = … Read more
Just hit AD with the username and password instead of authenticating against your DB // POST: /Account/Login [HttpPost] [AllowAnonymous] [ValidateAntiForgeryToken] public async Task<ActionResult> Login(LoginViewModel model, string returnUrl) { if (ModelState.IsValid) { var user = await UserManager.FindByNameAsync(model.UserName); if (user != null && AuthenticateAD(model.UserName, model.Password)) { await SignInAsync(user, model.RememberMe); return RedirectToLocal(returnUrl); } else { ModelState.AddModelError(“”, “Invalid username … Read more

You do have two DbSets` of the same type. IdentityDbContext<T> itself contains Users property declared as: public DbSet<T> Users { get; set; } You’re declaring second one in your class.
