Portal Password Reset problem

Hi All,
My scenario wants an automated process where the users can reset their own password. Do you know if the user password reset on the logon page is a automated process? Does the email with password go directly to the user or the email goes to the administrator and then the administrator has to reset the password? Do I need to configure the SMTP in my client system for this? If so can you give the steps involved for configuring SMTP?
I have configured SMTP server by logging as Administrator in portal -> System Admin -> Sys Confgiruation ->
Universal Worlist & Workflow -> Engine and gave the notification email as 'JavaMail'.
The again portal -> System Admin -> Sys Confgiruation ->
Universal Worlist & Workflow -> Email edit it gave the Host name as my SMTP mail server name. I checked my mail server through telner <mail server> 25 and it is opening in command prompt. Am I missing anything here in SMTP configuaration. Fileds like Pop3 User and Pop3 Password I wanted to leave as blank but when I click save in Portal , it self add some encrypted values.
can Anybody has done the above scenario.Its urgent.
I have read on help.sap.com and it looks like it sends an email to administrator and then the administrator resets the user password. Is my understanding correct on the above.
Can anyone provide me a step by step approach on the same.
Suitable answers will be rewarded definitely.

Narayanan B

I found some information about this on SDN and on the help.sap.com site that might help:
First look at:
Change/Reset password option on the login page
and:
Password Reset
Then check here:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/52/4c6c3e58d0d064e10000000a114084/frameset.htm

  • Portal Password Reset Application In webdynpro for ABAP

    Hello Friends,
    I am new to WDA . I want to create a Password Reset application in WDA like this
    [http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f0c09b9d-52e0-2d10-3981-86bfa8e19dc3?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true]
    Can someone pls give the solution , how to start??
    Thanks in advance
    Himani

    I am afraid that this is not going to be possible for you. From WebDynpro for ABAP, you do not have portal API's to do that.
    May be an idea ,If you have SSO in place you could try to call some FM's in r3 side to change the password in r3 system and this would synchronize the UME in portal.

  • Portal password reset page text changes

    Hello Experts,
    We are using Portal 7.02 SP13. We use the standard password reset tool for allowing users to reset their passwords.
    On the logon page there is a link Get Support which the user clicks to reset his/her password.
    Following this user sees the below where they select the option Password Reset and click Submit button.
    We want to change the text Are you a suuplier having trouble logging in?
    I have tried looking in the portal logon page PAR file to locate this text in some properties file, but a unable to locate it. Where do I find this text? Is it present within the logon page PAR or is there some other component within which I can find this?
    Regards,
    Saurabh

    Hello Experts,
    In the logon page PAR file I am able to find a JSP page umHelpPage.jsp which contains this line
    <div class="urTxtH3" tabindex=0><%=logonLocale.get("HAVE_TROUBLE")%></div>
    and when I do a View Source from the Password Reset page I can see the below line
    <div class="urTxtH3" tabindex=0>Are you a suuplier having trouble logging in?</div>
    I have looked at the logonLabels.properties and logonLabels_en.properties files under the umlogonbase.jar file within the portal logon PAR file, but for the key HAVE_TROUBLE I can see the text "Having trouble logging in?".
    Howevert at runtime I see the text "Are you a suuplier having trouble logging in?", does this mean that this text is not getting picked up from the logon page PAR file?
    Regards,
    Saurabh

  • ICloud account password reset problems

    Hello!
    I registered an iCloud account for my iPad mini. My username is [email protected]
    The problem is I forgot the password. I asked for a password reset at iforgot.apple.com.
    I checked all of my e-mail accounts when I figured out the email adress for my iCloud account is the [email protected] As I told I don't know my password so I can't sign in to my iCloud email to reset the password.
    Please help me, because I restored my iPad and I can't activate it without sing in to iCloud.
    Thanks,
    oliverus

    Did you set security questions? If yes, this might help you get in.
    Another place to look is in Keychain Access and in your Browser settings.
    Open Keychain Access in Applications/Utilities.
    Select Login keychain in the top right.
    You can enter iCloud in the top search box but you can also scroll through the list looking for the entry.
    If you see the blue circle with @, select. Double click to open
    You'll see the actual account listed so you'll know if it's the correct one.
    Check the box to show password.
    Enter your Login password for your User.
    You'll see the password.
    You might need to check several entries.
    In Safari, go to Preferences > Passwords.
    Check box to Show passwords.
    Select the icloud.com site
    Click on the password to view after entering your Login password for User.
    If you used FireFox or Chrome, you would need to look in their preferences for the password.
    TIP: When you can get in, add multiple recovery emails to the account. Write down your password and recovery emails and keep in a safe place. I recommend 1Password  http://agilewebsolutions.com/products/1Password
    I use a lot of fake answers and it's hard to remember so I keep these in secure notes in 1Password.
    Tip: when Yosemite is released you might see 1Password on sale. It's not cheap but worth every penny.

  • Password reset problem

    I've followed all the suggestions in the sticky thread, repeated them multiple times.  Still cannot get my password to work.  Please help - this issue has already caused me to be unable to place orders several times in the last 3 months.  I'm about ready to give up and stick with Amazon as I've never had problems signing in there.

    Hi UsualNoise,
    Not being able to access your account would certainly make placing an order difficult, so I can imagine how anxious you must feel to find a resolution.
    I was able to locate your account using the e-mail address you used to register for the forum and believe I found the cause of the problem. I've addressed that issue and have reset your BestBuy.com account's password, so please make sure to keep an eye on both your inbox and junk mail folders for a password reset notification. When you sign back in, please do the following in order:
    Log out of your BestBuy.com account completely on all devices, including the My Best Buy app
    Delete your browser history, cache, and cookies
    Visit the password reset link in your email (please be sure to check your spam folder)
    Create a new password that fits the accepted criteria (use a password you’ve never used before)
    Logout of your account as it will log you in automatically after creating the new password
    Wait 5-10 minutes and then attempt to login to your account
    Let me know if you need any additional assistance!

  • HP Connect Password Reset Problems

    Hi
    I seemed to have forgotten my password to access HP Connect/ePrinter and requested a reset password link; and this is what happens if you click the email link:
    I left it a day or two - no change
    I left it a week - no change
    I then forgot and came back about two months later - no change.
    I tried finding somehow to contact HP about this - no way were they going to talk to me, or receive an email from me.
    I desperation, I created a new email address, just to access the site; and there is still no way to contact HP and find out if they are fixing the server within this century.
    Anyone know how to get around this problem?

    Hi @macshimi,

  • TS5223 iCloud Password Reset Problems

    When I submit a password reset request on iCloud.com the site does not deliver the password reset instructions to the email address.  Apple, any ideas?

    We're only users here, Apple does not participate.
    Check your junk mail folder.  Or perhaps the email that you originally defined for sending icloud resets to is no longer active.

  • Getting My Password Reset Problems:

    I tried to reset my security questions by clicking the button that makes apple send you an email with a link to reset your password. Yet I've never got it, its been a week that I've had this problem! please help!

  • Password Reset problems

    I tried to reset my password following these instructions
    https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA95/How-do-I-change-my-password/
    But when I clicked on Change Password , It would only let me type in the Old Password. I was unable to click on the New Password boxes, unable to type anything in them. Couldnt even use TAB key to move to them. Im running Windows XP Pro in case its relevant. I've never ever had problems selecting and typing in a text window like that before.
    I ended up having to submit a lost password email reset even though I still knew my old password. So that worked and I was able to reset my password and log in that way.
    But I just thought I should post to let Skype know that their method for resetting new password didnt work.

    Restart the computer with the Option key held down and see if a padlock appears on the screen; if so, you will need to provide the firmware password, an the C key shortcut is disabled. If not, insert the DVD, push the button with the curly arrow, click on the DVD, and then the button with the straight arrow.

  • Portal: Password reset and unlock User via UME?

    I'm new to Portal and SAP.  I'm trying to find options to have a username unlocked and password sent to user based on a userid from our Portal logon page.
    The end user needs only to know their user ID, and based on this user ID I need their username to be unlocked, and a temporary password to be emailed to them (Looked up from their user ID via Database) 
    From what I've been reading UME can do this, but when I look into configuration of it I'm not seeing anything that can define this to show up on the Portal logon page.  Does this have to be developed and built in or linked as a separate page or is there a prefab one made already(nothing I could find showed evidence of this, although the documentation regarding UME hinted at this)?
    The end user doesn't need to answer security questions because to get access to the portal they already have to be on my secured network. 
    Any help would be great!

    Andrew,
    This link might help explain what is possible with SAP Portal in terms of allowing the user to reset their password from the logon screen.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/45/7e6313d8780dece10000000a11466f/frameset.htm
    As for allowing a user to unlock their account from the logon page, there is no such functionality that I know of.  This would need to be developed.  We are doing something similar.  In our case, we are developing a module that allows user to retreive their user ID if they forget it.  This also is not functionality that SAP provides.  The user can specify their email address, and it emails them their user ID.  This is being developed in Web Dynpro for Java utilizing the UME APIs.

  • WRTP54G Password reset problem

    Hello, I recently plugged my wireless router back up from storage and I reset the router and try logging it the site (http://192.168.15.1/cgi-bin/webcm)  to change my settings but I can not log in. I tried using admin as the password but an error message pops up stating "Error: User not allowed to login this user level." I cannot find the CD that came with this router.  The internet LED light just blinks when I plug everything up. Any help will do please!!!!

    I have a similAR PASSWORD PROBLEM WITH MY WRT54GS.  I am switching from Hughes Satellite to DSL.  I put in the username and password but when I continue, the router adds characters to the password.  Is there a way to reset so it only takes the new password?

  • Keychain password reset problem

  • WRT54GC password reset problem

    I got the wrt54gc (eu) router from a friend. The problem is he doesnt remember the password, so i tried to reset the router many ways (hold rst btn for 10sec then unplug it for 30sec then replug it; hold rst btn for 30sec then unplug it...) but still i get the 401 message. When i "reset" the router the lights are flashing.. so i guess i did it right.. but still 401 problem.. I wrote about this on other forums and a guy told me that the password cant be resetted even if you reset the device.. it just doesnt make sense to me.. it must be a way.. any ideas?

    Pressing the reset button will automatically set the router back to default settings. Since reset was done, "admin" must work.
    It is possible that you are seeing a cached page on your browser. You can try to delete the temporary internet files on the browser first.
    Do not reset the router always, it might break the device.

    Resetting User Password in Lion and Mountain Lion
    Boot into your Recovery Partition by holding down the Command and R keys whilst booting.
    When the Recovery screen appears, go to the Utilities menu and open Terminal.
    In Terminal, type:
    resetpassword
    ...a small app will open and allow you to choose the user for whom you want to change the password. If you are the admin, be certain that you choose your admin user. Type in your new password twice and give yourself a good hint. Click OK (or Done or whatever) and reboot, enjoying the use of your new, hopefully memorable, password.
    Good luck,
    Clinton
