Sun Java System Messaging Server 6.3 Administration Guide

4.1 To Modify Your Passwords

Because you set up a number of administrators with the same password during initial configuration (see 1.3 Creating the Initial Messaging Server Runtime Configuration), you might want to change the passwords of those administrators.

Refer to Table 4–1, which shows the parameters where default passwords are set up during initial runtime configuration and the utilities you can use to change them. For those parameters that use the configutil utility, see configutil in Sun Java System Messaging Server 6.3 Administration Reference for complete syntax and usage.

Table 4–1 Passwords Set in Messaging Server Initial Runtime Configuration


Parameter	Description
`local.ugldapbindcred`	Password for the user/group administrator set through the `configutil` utility.
`local.service.pab.ldappasswd`	Password for user specified by Bind DN for PAB searches set through the `configutil` utility.
SSL passwords for key files	Passwords that are directly set in the `sslpassword.conf` file.
Service Administrator Credentials	These are credentials that are directly set in your LDAP Directory (with the `ldapmodify` command).
Service Administrator for Delegated Administrator	You will only need to change the password of this administrator if you have enabled Sun LDAP Schema 1 and you are using the iPlanet Delegated Administrator utility. To change the password of the Delegated Administrator Service Administrator, you can do so by modifying your LDAP Directory (with the `ldapmodify` command), or the Delegated Administrator UI.
Store Administrator	To change the password of the Store Administrator, you can do so by modifying your LDAP Directory (with the `ldapmodify` command).

The following example uses the local.enduseradmincred configutil parameter to change the password of the end user administrator.

configutil -o local.enduseradmincred -v newpassword
