  We have an identity server. We have a lost password management application. There is a webpass and a webgate configured for the application of the LPM. The mode of communication is simple. The forgotten password feature does not work for the application of the LPM.

  --------------------------------------
  -In the form of connection, the user clicks on "I forgot my password"link
  -User enter 'User ID' and then click on submit
  -It redirects the user to a page of challenge question, the answer to the question the user and click on submit
  -The next page confirms the user had correctly answered the secret question. And invite the user to enter the new password, retype the password, and then click Save
  -When, click Save shows "cannot change the password. The screen is refreshed. The new password is not saved.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  For the LPM error "cannot change the password" check if you set a "minimum age" in the definition of the strategy of password.
  "If you set a minimum age of 2 days for example, the user will not be able to change his or her password before 2 days after the initial setting of the password and you will have 'identity/oblilx/logs/oblog.log' shows: ERROR 0 x 00000901 lost_pwd_mgmt.cpp:264 'cannot change password' loginName ^ xxxxx" in oblog.log

  --> In our POC password minimum age has been set, and we have forgotten that we have in him... This is why we hade this error on the LPM scenario...
  --> After setting the minimum age to 0, the scenario LPM works every time

• WAG160N, cannot change admin password.

  Hello

  I recently bought a WAG160N and I have a big problem with it, I can't change the password for the default Administrator account.

  All I get is this error in the browser "Error 324 (net::ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE)"

  I did a search here and on google and tried the following things on a computer connected to the router.

  1. Discount to zero fast.
  2. Power cable disconnect for 60 s.
  3. Factory reset followed to a reset of the router for 60 s.
  4. Delete my cookies of browsers and internet temporary files.

  Things I've changed is the basic configuration to connect to my ISP and the wireless settings.

  Information on clients, versions of firmware etc.

  Browser Chrome 16.0.912.75

  Wireless-N ADSL2 + Modem Router firmware 2.00.20 version V2

  This is because it is sometimes cached in your browser or Cookies and how your Internet connection is trying to load the Page, it is simply a Bug in the browser Google Chrome and probably will be fixed on a new version of the browser.

  Fix this bug in browser, it's easy because it's because of 3 different things.

  * The first thing to try is go into Options and clicking Reset to default values and refresh the Page or F5 shortcut key to refresh the page you are on Google Chrome.

  * The second error 324 is to simply just restart your Chrome browser.

  * Sometimes, it can be your Internet connection, the cause of error when browsing websites in chrome so just restart your Internet connection.

  I hope this helps you solve this problem.

• eSSO - change windows password - network provider

  Hi all
  
  We have configured the eSSO connection manager in a deployment using Windows v2 as primary authenticator and network provider, instead of GINA.
  
  The question is how (and if) it is possible to change the password in the AD domain to users via the Logon Manager eSSO agent installed in PC. I tried the Windows logon model included in the installation, but still when I press Alt - Ctrl - Del and change the password, I get that GINA known invite and not eSSO invite.
  
  Kind regards
  
  Evangelos

  You need self-service password reset, it's a different product in eSSO suite.

• Cannot change the password on disk external HARD Gigastore

  All G´Day. Hope someone can help me and I don't have to format this drive...

  Had recently changed the password disk and curiosity entry "not enough space", as hitting the SPACEBAR once, as the new pw. Repeated, agreed and worked.

  However, now I can't access the drive more. Hit 'space' at the pw prompt will still have the blocked path.

  All old/new password to enter the space just tried. Nothing. The drive was my nearby since so nobody else would not change it in the meantime.

  Got some important data backed up and we hope that me to play around with this option will not end to erase everything.

  Each suggestion and help is very appreciated.
  Best regards
  Dennis

  Hello.

  Unfortunately, in my opinion it is not possible to remove or modify this password without the old password.

• Domain users cannot change the password with Server 2003 SP1

  Hello community,

  I use a Server 2003 SP1 as a domain controller.  Now we have implemented group policy which is the default value

  now some users when you are prompted to spend there the password are able to go through the process of implementation of their old password and change to new password but are constantly pushed to repeat the same process.  I don't have any screenshots as of this point of the error, simply users who suffer.  Any information is appreciated.

• Cannot change the password for my wireless connection

  The wireless router has changed the key and I need to change the key/password on my windows computer 7, but it is not letting me.

  Usually on other computers, you can right-click the connection wireless from the taskbar and it will give you options of 'Connect' and 'Properties' (and you can change it in the properties).  But on this computer, there is no 'Properties' option, simply connect.  How can I get the Properties tab?

  You use a third-party wireless instead of Windows Manager? If to check with the manufacturers support site or your user manual for assistance to change the properties of the wireless network.

  You could also, last spring, just remove the existing profile and then re-create it with the new encryption key.

  DB version: 11.2
  Operating system: Solaris 10
  
  We have a password verification function through which a password can be reused after 50 different password changes.
  But I want to disable this check and re - use a password.
  
  Profile of user SCOTT is DEFAULT. I put the password DEFAULT profile check the null function

  select profile from dba_users where username = 'SCOTT';

• Cannot change 'Windows Update' - "Important updates"

  I had my Windows Update for updates but allows me to decide when to download and install the value.  This morning my computer downloaded, installed and rebooted without asking me.  I checked my settings and they are configured to automatically download, install and restart and I can not change the settings, they are grayed out.  I could go into regedit and change the settings here, but wonder why it happened and how I can access the setting of the control panel again.  I am logged in as administrator.  I am running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit.
