Change password for a user
Hello, I just added a new user to my system, when I set the user's password, the two passwords didn't match, the problem is that adduser didn't let me retype my password the, it just completed, and I can't log in with this user I can't change password with the passwd utility, what options do I have?
This can work:
1. as root, edit /etc/passwd and remove the line for the messed up user
2. remove the users dir, from /home
3. recreate the user

Two things. First, I'm not exactly sure what password you are trying to
change. The LDAP server's password or a user's password in the LDAP
server. Second, could you please post a stack trace.
Thanks - Neil

This condition based execution requires - javascript coding.
In miscelleaneous tools bar, you have an option of SCRIPT_ITEM writer tool, drag the tool into your WAD layout, and select the properties , choose the editor option and paste your coding. that's it.
Alternate option :
in your web application design layout , you will fine XHTML coding editor , there you need to write coding and execute the same.
Hope this will help to you.
Assign Points if its really useful.

How to trigger and change password for AD user after form based login
Hello,
We are authenticating against Active Directory with Weblogic 10.3 using FORM based security. Everything is working. I need to now change a password for an authenticated user. For example, I have set a user to have their password expire on next logon from the AD side. The user logs in but somehow I need to trap some info from Active Directory (or an LDAP conversation) to figure out if I need to force the user to change password.
Do I need to start looking at custom code with LDAP Java SDK's or can I use a canned MBean from Weblogic Server.
I am looking at http://www.mozilla.org/directory/ for LDAP.
Can I set/reset an AD user's password with an MBean like the following link?
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13222_01/wls/docs92/javadocs/index.html?weblogic/management/security/authentication/UserPasswordEditorMBean.html
If anyone has any experience with this or can point me in the right direction let me know.
If anyone else is interested please add to the tread and I'll be sure to keep the found solution(s) updated here.
Thanks...........

Can't change password for mobile user on certain client computers
I have a MacBook Pro that has mobile user accounts. The user accounts are defined in the WGM of my macpro Server. The mobile user account works fine except that after some time I could not change the password on the client computer. I could change it in WGM but then it was not updated on the client. I tried changing the password from the SystemPreferences -> Accounts option as well as from the command line with "passwd". When using the command line passwd it just says "sorry". When using the Accounts option it asks to contact the "system manager".
I called Apple Support. They suggested recreating the mobile user account on the client. I did that, and everything worked fine, including changing passwords on the client. But, after several weeks, I again cannot change the password on the client. I can change it in WGM fine, but again the client is not updated.
It seems that the password database on the client gets confused about user password changing privileges after some time.
To make matters more complicated, everything works fine for another client computer, including changing passwords.
Any suggestions?This problem was related to the case sensitivity of computer names. I had recreated the LDAP binding to the client computer with the computer name in all lower case
characters. However, when I created the mobile user initially, I had used a mix of upper and lower case characters (the name that shows up upon reverse DNS lookup). Once I re-created the LDAP binding with the original name, everthing worked fine. -

How can I change the password for the USER in SAP?
also I want to change the Language and date Format b/c it's displaying in German language..Hi,
Assuming that User has already his/her user-id and password, and now he/ she wants to change it.
select the client and provide Log-in credentials. Now, instead of 'ENTER' there is one Tab: 'New Password' (up, left hand). Click it.
Now, system will ask for new password to change.

There is a Sub-Tab: Password.
Here, key-in change password and SAVE.

How can i change a password for network users?
Good day. I have a problem with changing passwords on server Yosemite. As i understand there is no way to change password for the network users remotely. I mean, when for example someone will change his password and then will forgot it how can i change it? When i open a server manage program and go to the "Users" and than open a setting for the user - "Change Password..." is not clickable.
Hi Dcp24,
If you are having issues resetting a user's account password on your server, you may find the information in the following article helpful (article is aimed at Mavericks, but the steps should be similar in Yosemite):

Change password for Domain\SAPservice SID and sid adm user
Hi guys
During NW711 installation, Ii gave OS User password different with master password.
Now i would like to synchronise the OS User password with master password(DDIC/SAP)
How to change the password for below users
SAP System administrator <Domain>\<sid>adm
SAP System Service User<Domain>\SAPService<sid>
Appreciate immediate response.
regardsHi,
If I am not wrong you system is installed in windows. You can change the password in the domian controller under users OU or you can ask your domian administrator to change the same. But, I would recommend not to do this as after chaging the password the sap system will not start and you need to update the changed password in all the places wherever the mentioned IDs are used. For eg. in SAP_<SID> service and SAPOSCOL service.
Also, if the installation is in cluster then need to be more carefull and see where all need to update the changed password.
Thanks & Regards,
