Procedure to change username and password: VirtualCenter and ESX Console

Hi all

I need to change the user and password for VC and ESX Console.

-What is the best procedure to change the user and password for the Console ESX and Virtual Center?  (Update3 ESX 3.5 and VirtualCenter 2.5 update3)

-Can do when virtual machines are running?

Tanks a lot.

This is the procedure if you are not the root password - if you know not the root password, you can use the passwd command while logged in as root.

    Hello

    To "unlock" a computer, you simply press your ctrl + alt + delete simultaneously and enter the password of the user account.

    If you are not able to enter a name (and a blank password), then press the power button on the computer.  If it does not close on its own, you may need to hold the power for 10 seconds or more.

  • Correct procedure to change the Windows password

    This is similar to the post http://forums.lenovo.com/lnv/board/message?board=SpecialInterestsUtilities&message=3111&query.id=101... but I'm not looking for a workaround solution. I'm looking for the right way to avoid the problem.

    When I changed my Windows password in Windows and restarted, the first thing he did was ask me after that I spent my finger. He said that he wanted changed in the security of the client system. I entered the password and it erased, and then connected. After the start, another window pops up asking my Windows password for the security solution client. I entered, but this was rejected. I tried again, rejected. I tried again using any password that I use. All rejected. Maj CapsLock and numlock off the coast.

    Fortunately, I was able to cancel out of it. I changed my password to the original and then restarted. The same claims were held, but he agreed the old passwords. I am in control, but with my original password. Phew!

    Then... What is the correct way to do it? Client security rejects the new password. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

    Thanks for your help!

    I found a solution in case anyone else comes across this. It may be the best or only one, but it worked...

    (1) disable Security TPM. Do the reset, etc.

    (2) use the control panel Windows users to change your password.

    (3) turn on the TPM secure. Do the reset and the new password asked a couple of times.

    How can I change the name of the previous owner to mine (see above)?  I looked at the relevant answers and can not find one for me.

    An easy solution is to create a new account and transfer your files. And when everything seems fine, you can delete the old account (perhaps in a week's time).

    If you want to analyze your own dump files.
     
    You need start exploring as an administrator to access the files in C:\windows\Minidump. Explore a right click and choose run as administrator.

    Download and install the debugging tools for Windows
    Install Windows SDK, but simply choose the debugging tools.

    Create a folder called symbols in C:\

    Start Windbg. Menu file - path to the symbol file and enter


    SRV * C:\symbols* http://msdl.microsoft.com/download/symbols
     
    Close, and then reopen WinDbg. Menu file - Open Crash Dump

    It will analyze the crashdump. You must close and reopen WinDbg for each analyzed dump file. Because you download symbols from the internet WinDbg seems to be to do nothing. But it's the download. Be patient.

     
    Looking for a driver or a library system that the incident occurred at the end of the list. Find the file, do a right click then Properties - Details tab. If it shows a driver, you will need to update the driver identified. Most of the pilots are in c:\windows\system32\drivers.
     
    Look for the drive for a file.
    Click Start - All Programs - Accessories - right on command prompt and choose run as administrator. Type by replacing drivername.sys by the name of the file (or copy and paste by clicking in the command prompt window and choose Paste).

    dir c:\ drivername.sys/a/s

     
    If it has a file system see if you can get a program to analyze - v.

    Type in the theWinDbg command prompt

     
    ! analyze - v
     
    -v means Verbose and if the accident was created by a program, as opposed to hardware or a driver, it will appear in the middle of the list.
     
    for example
     
    Nom_processus: java.exe
    Nom_image: ntkrnlmp.exe
     
    Nom_processus does not appear in the output of v - analyze and only if a program is from the call that was blamed.
     
    Download them for analysis
     
    Or download files minidump to your Public SkyDrive folder and copy the link in the address bar, and I'm going to do an analysis.
     
    SkyDrive is the download file from Microsoft, Windows Live, at https://skydrive.live.com/site.  Read about it at http://explore.live.com/skydrive.

    If you downloaded one of the Live applications or a web site based Live mail account, you already have access to your Skydrive.

  • How to create a procedure to change random passwords

    Hello


    I am trying to create a procedure to change randomly the passwords for all users in a database. I need this after the cloning of the database. I have too many users to change manually...

    Y at - it option to create a procedure that will extract all users in a database and edit a random password?


    I wasn't able to find any clue.

    Could you help me?

    Thank you

    Welcome to the forum.

    change randomly the passwords for all users in a database.

    All users? Including SYS/SYSTEM? I hope not...

    But you can use DBMS_RANDOM. STRING and ALL_USERS and dynamic SQL.

    http://download.Oracle.com/docs/CD/B19306_01/AppDev.102/b14258/d_random.htm#sthref4675
    http://download.Oracle.com/docs/CD/B19306_01/server.102/b14237/statviews_2114.htm#REFRN20302
    http://download.Oracle.com/docs/CD/B19306_01/AppDev.102/b14261/dynamic.htm#LNPLS01101

    (easy to find when you do a quick search for http://www.oracle.com/pls/db102/homepage or http://www.oracle.com/pls/db112/homepage)

    DBMS_RANDOM. CHAIN can give you a random password easily:

    select dbms_random.string('x', 10)
    from   dual
    connect by level <= 10;
    

    Zo, you could do something like:

    begin
      for rec in ( select t.username
                   ,      dbms_random.string('x', 10) new_pass
                   from   all_users t
                  -- where  t.username not in (...)
                  -- or
                  -- where  t.username in (...)
                 )
      loop
        --execute immediate ' alter user '||rec.username||' identified by '||rec.new_pass;
        dbms_output.put_line ('New password for user '||rec.username||' = '||rec.new_pass);
      end loop;
    end;
    /
    

    You will have to fill in the where clause.
    I also commented on the dynamic modify the statement of the user, since I don't know if you really want to reset the DDT for all users.
    Also, rather than use dbms_output.put_line to verify the new password, you can insert them into a table or spool the output to a file.

  • Issue between Cisco and ESX switch

    It is a small deployment with an ESX Server running a Windows Small Business SERVER 2003.

    ESX server has 2 network cards, previously a NIC was connected to a small FastEthernet Switch netgear and all workstations have been working on it.

    I replaced the netgear with a Cisco WS-C2960S-24TS-S and the field still works fine, the problem is that I can't connect to the service console or the VI client from a computer connected to the switch.

    I can't ping the IP switch ESX service console and also can not ping the switch since the service console.

    Switch and ESX console can ping the Windows Virtual Machine and the virtual machine can ping both of them. Therefore, I can get to the VI client via Wirtual Machine (not the best scenario to manage one of its right VMS ESX host?)

    I don't know what the problem is, but it sounds a lot there is a problem with the configuration of port / vlan on the cisco switch.

    Can a Cisco expert help out me here?

    Here are some details of the configuration.

    Port group service Console and the port Vm group do not use no matter what config VLAN on the ESX Server.

    I think I've seen this before. I'm not super familiar with this switch, but I think that the problem is with cisco-computer office macro.

    Try using the macro switch cisco instead since you are addressing a vSwitch on the other end. You can always check the mac address table and see if your Mac to the vswif (service console) make their appearance. If they are not then appear this is an inconsistency in the port between the Cisco Switch and vSwitch.

    I noticed a while back that, on the logon screen, that there is another user called 'Fiona' (she told me an old co-worker who probably stayed with her).

    Now a friend in need of a very old HP PC Lions not having completely fortunately I managed to copy his files before he was insane - I offered this newer PC it after that I have "set up" for him.

    I put a new account in place on this new PC "Ken" has been added. Then, after the deletion of accounts Judi & Fiona, I cleaned the machine with MalwareBytes, CCleaner & defrag.  All is well now with only Ken appearing on the screen logon (with an image of the appropriate icon), that I used several times in the implementation of his e-mail account and move its acrossetc files. His password is empty.

    Being the only user now Ken, I thought that it strange would its user (only) one click each time to the 'Log in', so I searched and found a box that said something to the effect «... do not show a picture of connection...» » .  That started my problem!  Removing his login "icon" brings ONLY the following - FIONA!

    When connecting a Logon Message now says "the system could not log. Make sure your username and domain are correct, then type your password again.  Letters in passwords must be typed using the proper case" the choice for this error message is 'OK', which takes you to a login screen 'Type Win98' older Classic looking (no icon user) who was behind this logon Message, with (name) Fiona appears on the login screen (former) (full name and empty below the password) , with the choice to enter the password or a stop!

    Of course the password cannot be guessed (Yes - tried blank, admin, etc.) so the only choice is to stop.

    VA F8 at startup for 'Safe mode' goes to screen black WITH Fiona login screen as usual safe mode above and booting with the CD using NTPASSWD shows the usual 1) Administrator 2) 3) invited Ken and 4) Support Microsoft - NO FIONA is shown - and I put all these passwords to 'empty '. Of course repair and recovery repair 'R' does nothing on the removal of Fiona

    This translates the original message & Fiona connection again.  How can I return to screen "image icon" connection without losing files and mail Ken Ken. Where Fiona could hide when it is not a USER of the NET?

    Yet once again, I'd appreciate any help. Brian.

    You should be able to just select (click on) "Fiona", press the delete key, and then type any desired account name.  It doesn't work?

    If you cannot type on "Fiona" in the logon window, you can use the following procedure to modify the Windows registry... or you can take the computer to an independent repairer and ask them to fix it for you.  Don't go to a chain of stores, as a "geek squad" or BigBoxStoreUSA type of place.

    Go here--> https://www.raymond.cc/blog/how-to-edit-windows-registry-key-values-without-booting-in-windows/

    Choose method 1 or method 2.  I'm familiar with Hiren (method 2), but not with the program described in method 1 (even though it seems simple).  Any ISO file you choose, I suggest to download and use ImgBurn (free) to create your CD bootable from the downloaded ISO file.

    The registry key to change is in the same place as "userinit" (which is the example used in the article), so to follow 1-5 step method or method 2 for step 7.

    You will be at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

    In the right pane of the registry editor, you will see a large list of items.  Scroll down the page until you see LogonType and double-click it.

    In the "Value data" box, type 1, and click OK (1 is the same either hexadecimal or decimal).

    Close the registry editor, take the CD from the drive and reboot.  You should see the Welcome screen when Windows restarts.

  • Whenever I update FireFox all my usernames and passwords vanish in password manager

    For several updates recent Firefox all my usernames and passwords (stored in password manager) disappear. I was able to recover them by exchanging one or more of the three files to a previous version ('Key3db', 'Logins.json' and 'Prefs.js') until this WHAT THE LAST THREE OR FOUR updates. This patch no longer works and I hesitate so far. I would like to know... a) this bug has been fixed?
    (b) if it is not, how can I keep my ID & password somewhere else so I can quickly re - install, or at least see them in a list so I can manually copy all back in?
    (c) how to prevent a pop-up annoying telling me to update to FireFox (other than by the update)?

    I used FireFox with happiness for many years, but this problem is very annoying and I am looking to change (with great reluctance) to another browser if an other update loses all usernames and passwords, and I have to re - install an older version to get back them.
    Please help if you can - and thank you for considering this issue.
