Greetings.

We have about 300 reports running on BOXI. In order to set the password we have to go into the Central Management Console to set the report’s database default information for logging into the datasource. In here we set the password.



The problem is our DBA is instituting a policy where the database passwords will be changed every 60 days. So now we are going to have to change the password for 300 reports every 2 months.



Does anybody know how I can set these passwords in a properties file that BOXI can access or if they can be passed to the report from our Java environment?



Thanks in advance.
