Meridian Mail 12 default password 1

[mlozoveanu]

Hi Guys,

I have a MM rls 12 with unknown password and reset to default password using tape drive and tape for rls 13, as 12 is missing.

Received the message:

"System Administator's Password has been reset to the default
Please reboot your system into full service

Shutding down tape server"

but when trying to login to MM after reboot the adminpwd password is not working.

Any thoughts?

I'm surprised that you were even able to use the mail 13 installation tape to reset the Admin password to default as I didn't think it was possible.

For Meridian Mail systems up to release 12, it's possible to reset it via the TTY port.
I can't post the method here.

Issue sorted using TTY reset procedures.

Thanks @Firebird for your advise.
