Changing R Console password 2

[graver]

How can i change my rconsole password...I read some tids on novell's site but they weren't very helpful....any help would be appreciated

If you have used inetcfg.nlm, just load it and goto Manage Configuration > Configure Remote Access to this Server > put the new password in the appropriate line. If you haven't used inetcfg then load Install > NCF files options > and edit autoexec.ncf (if you have the password there). See TID#10026420 for more info.

Good Luck,
Mark ;-)

unload remote.nlm (you may need to unload rspx first), then re load remote: you'll be prompted for a pw. You'll then be able to run rconsole with the new pw (you'll want to edit the load statements in autoexec.ncf aswell to reflect the new pw.

what load statements do i need to edit in the autoexec.ncf

You should have 2 lines in the autoexec.ncf:
load REMOTE <password>
load RSPX

If the password (do not use brackets) is not put in after the load REMOTE, you will be prompted for one. If you use INETCFG the password will not be stored in the autoexec.ncf which is plain text. It is stored in SYS:ETC\Netinfo.cfg which is a little more secure.

Cheers,
