There are a couple of ways, but try using the browser interface to update client and retype password. Go to client and open a session, in which you should get prompted for a password. Stop and restart service/demon depending on OS.
You might want to verify the spelling of [asswordaccess generate]? It would also be help if server OS and client OS were defined. -----Original Message----- From: Muthyam Reddy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 23, 2003 11:34 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: cleint passwd ** High Priority ** Hi everyone, What is the recommended way to set a client's password after it is forgotten without turning off authentication?
