Changing the Local Database Password

By default, the password that the Siebel application uses to connect to the local database is the same as the password used to synchronize the local database with the Enterprise or Regional database. The Mobile Web Client user can redefine the local database password to be different from the valid synchronization password.

Maintaining different credentials for accessing the local database and for synchronizing the local database provides a layer of security against both unauthorized access to the local database and unauthorized access to data on the server database.

To change the local database password by using the Mobile Web Client

1. Start the Mobile Web Client and log in to the local database.

   If the local database password has not been changed previously, then the password is the same as that used to initialize or synchronize the local database.

2. From the application-level menu, choose Navigate > Site Map > User Preferences > Profile.
3. Enter the new password in the Password and Verify Password fields, and then click Save.
