Description
It is required that the paradmin password be changed from the default. How is this done? -
Resolution
To change the paradmin password:
- Sign in as paradmin
- Select the username in the upper right of the screen (it is a drop-down menu)
- Select "Change Password"
Note it is not possible to change the password for users that are using external Primary Authentication (such as users who authenticate with Active Directory).
While it is also possible to change the password from the "Users & Groups | UserIDs | Manage UserIDs" menu; this change to the password will be a temporary change and the paradmin user (or any UserID that has their password changed in this manner) will then have to update their password on first login from this temporary password.
For parmaster, login to /admin and repeat the same steps shown in the image above, select "Change Password".
