Add Change Password to ACS

In the old access client solutions you were able to select your systems and click change password.


Use Case:

We are managing multiple systems and would like to be able to in ACS change our password for all systems at one time. Or at least be able to change our password without going into ACS.

    I suggest having a look at SSO/EIM.

    ACS provides two ways to accomplish changing your password:
    1. From the main ACS GUI, select Edit->Preferences. Then select the Passwords tab. From there, the user can select one or more systems and change their password.
    2. You can also change the password from the command line using the pwchange plugin. See section 9.1.24 PWCHANGE in the GettingStarted document. ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/as400/products/clientaccess/solutions/GettingStarted_en.html

    Hello Marina Schwenk,

    In IBM i ACS in the menu option "Edit" is the option "Preferences", once opened their you will find the tab "Passwords". This allows you to change password for one system, or for more at the same time. The last option will only work if your password is the same of course.

    Is this maybe were you are looking for?

    Greetings Rudi
