password for the owner user account

I can't sign on my user account owner to bring to the top of my desk, it says reset the password with the "reset disk" which was not because I don't think that I would need it. I think that my kids tried to guess my password and I inevitably lockout on my own account. Help, please.

  • Is any impact of a change of the password of the local user account on an instance of a content server Cisco TelePresence virtual computer?

    Hello

    I'm looking to see if there is an impact to change the password of the local user account on an instance of a content server Cisco TelePresence virtual machine?

    The software version is v6.2 build 4073.

    Thank you in advance,

    Robert

    I'll assume, you are referring to the administrator account, but it can be applied to any local account which is located on the TCS server itself.  It has no impact to change the password, unless you are using doesn't say account to connect to the server of TCS or web interface, it will not affect the application of TCS as most things such as external storage or clustering rely on domain accounts and not the local server.

  • After the migration, I connect twice for the same user account

  • Change the password for the Active Directory account that is running VMware VirtualCenter Server

    We have an ESXi5.5 environment and I was instructed to change the password of the Active Directory account is used to run the VMware VirtualCenter Server Service.

    There is a Data Source configured for a separate MS - SQL Server that is configured to use Windows authentication

    I find the Article KB KB VMware: changing the vCenter Server database user ID and password

    On the key: KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\VMware, Inc., \VMware VirtualCenter\DB T HE for 2 and 3 values are empty

    It is not quite clear to me if the vpxd.exe Pei command is necessary for our environment (service AD account and Windows authentication) or if it is only if SQL authentication is defined on the Data Source - would anyone have experience with this change and be able to clarify for me?

    Thank you

    Yes you are right,

    but I would suggest to stop the services first before you do the activity, it can take the old password in a few times and lock the conduit to account

    2. once the password is updated, make sure that the login account is updated (is currently running services on the specified user account or local account?)

    If it runs using the specified account, you will need to updated and restart the services.

    3. make sure that the services are running fine and observe for a while, the user account must not get locked.

    Let me know if you have any other questions

  • What are the consequences of the change of password for the admin user in golden gate?

    Hello

    I just picked up during surgery and allows us to replicate door data of gold. Unfortunately, the password for the user that has been created in the database for the Golden Gate has been lost.

    At the present time, processes are added and I was trying to connect but it fails with name of user and password invalid.

    I want to change it. Do I need to apply this new password anywhere after changing?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Not a lot of consequences, if you have changed the password where you had used.

    1. you must change the password of user goldengate in parameter files where ever you had mentioned, as the extract file etc..,.

    2. If you used the password encrypted, you must re-create the encryption password.

    3. If you used a user Alias id, then you must change this too.

    Kind regards

  • No password for the SYS user

    I was handed to our production database server Oracle 11 g R2 and said to manage by management. Obviously a DBA experienced / qualified isn't in the budget this year and it gives me the opportunity to learn SQL and Oracle 11 g.

    That being said, I noticed that when I try to connect to my instance target (SID = ide) as SYS, there is no request to enter the password for the SYS. I am basically poured directly into the database with SYS privleges.

    As you can see I was connected as user 'oracle' OS on Linux and was never invited to no password. I was wondering if this is normal in the world of database Oracle or disapproved and recommended that change some how. Can you guys please explain? I haven't used at all before Oracle so I don't know if it's good, but looks bad for me to a point of safety. Afraid I will break 11g if I fix this too.

    Thanks for the clarification!

    Yes, "will not work" means must obtain a password to connect.

    Please mark the answer as being correct.

  • How to transfer items from acct admin for the standard user account?

    I recently added the standard account for my children.  I can't find out how to transfer all the photos, games, etc from my admin account to their user account. Any help is appreciated...

    Hello

    Follow the steps in this link and check if that helps: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Fix-a-corrupted-user-profile (ignore the title).

  • Limit the control panel and IE for the Standard user account

    I'll set up a new computer for a 91 year old customer in a retirement home, who don't use the computer for e-mail and an occasional Wordpad document.  His son wants to put computer in place so that it cannot get to the Internet Explorer browser, or go to control panel, because he bumbles around the keyboard causing all sorts of problems requiring frequent service for me calls.

    The operating system is Windows Vista Home BASIC, so gpedit.msc is not installed.  I have activated the system administrator account for my use when I am called to repair the computer and set the Standard user to user account.  The problem is that the only way I found to disable IE and the Control Panel causes them be turned off in BOTH accounts.  I wish I could disable them ONLY in the user account.

    The only solution I found to disable the control panel is a registry hack in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current versionpolicies where I put a DWORD 32-bit "NoControlPanel" with a value of 1.  I tried to do that in the HKEY_CURRENT_USER hive, but it had no effect.  This kind of work, but there are two problems then; Mises_a_jour Windows 1) won't install and 2) when I have to go to work on the computer, I first change administrator user, then change the DWORD value to 0 and finally to restart the computer, causing additional assignments, lengthen my time at work.

    Second, the only solution I could find to disable IE was in the default protrams Panel, which disables the administrator as well.

    Can someone tell me if there is another way to achieve this, while IE and control panel are disabled only for the user?

    Change the security to the IE executable rights? Remove 'Users', while you keep the administrator rights.

    For control panel see 'Method Two' in this link:

    "creacontech" wrote in the new message: * e-mail address is removed from the privacy... *

    Thanks for your response, but will not solve problem of this "gentleman". The object is not so much to limit internet access, as it should restrict access to programs.  He is 91 years old, has small hands and types rapidly with two fingers, but made many mistakes.  Disability is before everything to prevent clikety snap everywhere, because he creates sort of a zillion copies shortcuts of the webpage on his desk, until everything hangs and I have to go a push up on his mess. The same reason applies to the Contorl Panel.  We don't want it to be able to get to the Panel "printers."  When a document will not be printed for a reason, he go, dummy click around and created a bunch of copies of the printer, with a gazillian of documents clogged up in the queue of the coil.  I had to cclear up to 100 documents from the spool on 50 copies printer queue.  It's really an economic problem for his son.
