• Can I change the root password in VoP Server Explorer?

  Hello

  I was encouraged to see VoP Server Explorer, but my network does not have any system to have a default root password. Can I change the root user password?

  Thank you!

  Jennifer Flanagan

  Altogether.  Just connect to the console as root and type 'passwd' to change the root password.  Be sure to keep track of what you set, because there is little recourse except in single-user mode if it goes astray.

• Change the root password interactively

  Hello
  I want to change the password of root interactively using a configuration script, where I change many more parameters, without specifying the new root password in the configuration script.
  I would like the script to give me a chance to type the password to myself.
  Something like when you started a new cmd session in a .bat script using the cmd /c
  Thank you

  Take a look at this script and see if the way they work for you: http://communities.vmware.com/thread/412623

• Cisco VCS: You can change the root within the TSH Admin password?

  I know you can reset password "admin" to root, by running the tsh, but you can change the 'root' password in the 'admin' tsh?

  Hi David,

  No you can not change it until and unless you follow the documented procedure to reset the password using console.

  However, you can go to t-root shell using the command 'tsh' and set up a new admin account, then log into the VCS GUI admin with new administrator and reset the password for the default Administrator account.

  Thank you

• Impossible to change the root / calvin credientials

  Hello

  I recently brought a new chassis m1000e with two cmc firmware 4.5 running online.  When I am connected to the CMC initially he prompted me to change the default password, I did successfully.  Now I see a very strange behavior.  I am able to connect with BOTH root / calvin and root / new_password.  I tried to change the password of the cli and web gui racadm.  No luck.  I have confirmed that there is no external authentication is enabled, so local connection is all that should work.

  To be honest, I don't know even where to start looking for failures for a bizarre question.  I've never seen a single user name works with two password combinations.  Maybe someone can shed some light on this for me?  Please do not hesitate to ask or comment out everything that can be useful.  This prevents me from going ahead with construction since I can't very well put a chassis in production with a default root password...

  If I'm not clear, or if anyone would like any other information feel free to ask.  I really want to get this resolved as soon as POSSIBLE.

  Thanks in advance for any help provided.

  Jeff

  You can also check if the password reset jumper is installed on CMC. If the password reset jumper is installed default user name and password will be functional.

  You can see 'Reset the administrator password' at the bottom of the user's guide for more details on this feature.

• Satellite 1000-S158 changed the BIOS password on an empty

  I changed the BIOS password on an empty (blank). I can't access the BIOS. Pressing on enter: it shows the error isn't the right password.
  How can I fix?

  Hmm. sounds you did something wrong maybe you misspelled or set a different password?

  Anyway, the point is that you are not able to bypass the BIOS password screen and in this case you will be unable to start Notepad.

  The problem is that you cannot remove the BIOS password, this can be done by a technician of ASP.

  In my opinion only technician in ASP can help you.

• Is there a safe way to change the admin password?

  When I got my custom PC built and began working with her six years ago, I had no understanding of the importance of strong passwords. The password for the administrator account on my PC is very low. I said two completely different things on fixing this. 1. it is completely impossible and any attempt will be completely trash the account Admin 2 - it is possible if you use the correct procedure and follow the instructions carefully. Who is the most reliable assertion?

  Hi okieseeker,

  It does not hurt to change the password on the computer, unless you change or forget the password.

• Receive the Error Message "the user profile Service could not connect. Cannot load the user's profile' trying to change the administrator password

  Original title: how to change a password for an administrator account that does not work properly?

  When I try to change the settings for an account via the Control Panel, I get the admin password, but nothing happens. Close the popup box, but the program I want to open do nothing. I tried to change the password itself on the administrator account, but when I try to log on it, the message that appears is "the user profile Service could not connect. User profile cannot be loaded. "So far, I have not found a way to change the admin password or even that the password works. I tried to remove the program responsible for Parental control in the Task Manager, but it is too safe for me to enter. Is it possible to restart the Parental control or the account administrator if I can't access?

  Hello

  The access password is in the router to verify with the support of the manufacturer of the router. Most are online
  help for this, even though setting up as new. Change the router password, even to change the SSID

  How can I change the administrative password when the computer was a gift and I do not know the password. I need the password to set anything in the computer, including the time?

  Can you log on under an admin account - any admin account? If this isn't the case, then you must ask the former owner for the password.
