I need to change the password for the admin account. Where do I change the password and what kind of problems can I expect when I change this password?

Thanks
 
Assuming you are running Windows 200X Server: In the Administrative Programs, Active Directory Users and Computers. You will also need to change any programs where the password is saved. For example, the Arcserve Backup software will not run after you change the password until changing there as well. Ditto with remote connection programs, VNC, etc.

Good Luck.
