Is it possible to change the Administrator password for all computers getting backed up? We recently changed the master password and now I have to go into all of the backup jobs and select each computer, go into security, and put in the new password. This is very time consuming. Does anyone know of a way to do all machines at once? Thanks.
 
Make sure you have changed the ARCserve system account.

The Arcserve system account is the same as the one used on each of the computers. It appears I have to change each password on each computer in the security area in Arcserve.
 
If the ARCserve system account is the same as the ones your typing in then try configuring a backup job and NOT entering the security information. It should default to using the ARCserve system account. When or if the security box comes up for each machine just click 'ok' with it blank.

Let us know how this goes.
