Hi JRMS,

You can reset the password for CAROOT by running the following command from the home directory of brightstorarcservebackup....

* authsetup /p "newpassword"

I have tried to change caroot password, but get returned error: Authsetup: Error opening domain service initialization event

Any idea's how to get around this password change? Or, do you know the default password for caroot?

The ARCserve Domain Service must be running.

I have done the above steps and I still cannot reset this password. I am logged on to the domain as administrator.

C:\Program Files\CA\BrightStor ARCserve Backup>authsetup /p "manager"
AuthSetup : Initializing the authentication database
AuthSetup : Password =******()
AuthSetup : Domain services are running.
AuthSetup : Authentication services are running.
AuthSetup (421): Connect to Domain server. (iter=1).
AuthSetup (444): Connect to authentication server==FUJISAWA_BSRV (iter=1).
AuthSetup (538): ca_auth -equiv <localNTaccount> =235 failed ... reason : No per
mission for this operation

AuthSetup (557): ca_auth -equiv <localNTaccount> =235 failed ... reason : No per
mission for this operation

AuthSetup : Terminating (No Permission/Invalid password)

Hi,

1. Stop ALL ARcserve services are running.
2. Rename the folder named <server_name> under
Drive:\Program Files\CA\BrightStor ARCserve Backup\data\discovery
3. Restart ALL Arcserve services. - This should recreate
the folder
4. Open a DOS window and CD into the ARCserve folder
5. Type "ca-qmgr -list" - this would prompt you to
establish an equivalence if none exists.. type "Y"
6. authsetup /p "" - to blank out the caroot pwd.


Hope this helps..
