I need to implement a password reset tool  in Domino 9.0 because i need every user to recover their password by thenselves, knowing this I was thinking to use the "pwdresetsample.nsf" file  for this purpose but i need help to implement it without the HTTP authentication, can anyone give a hand with this??

An idea
As you have mentioned the password reset sample is really just a very basic example and I would not implement that in a production environment.
Since you do not want to use http authentication one option you have is to implement some sort of authentication based on some criteria stored in a user profile.
For example you could create a web application where the user is required to enter their identification number.  
The identification number than provides the user with X number of security questions they have to answer.  The questions would be either questions the user setup themselves when setting up their profile or based on predefined questions (what is your last 4 digit of your SS# for example) Of course the user profiles must not be accessible to anyone , and you should only use HTTPS protocol when doing all of this as well.
