is it possible to change the root password for the comwin-expert access ?

Do you want to change the HiPath 4000 'root' password or just add in a new user to setup on Comwin?

i would like to change the "user account"-root, password to something other than the default. i don't know where to change it or if it will effect other accesses.

First add a new user that will be used like the 'root' account was used - here I will call it 'longname'

ADD-USER:"LONGNAME",0&&10,C&I&L&P&R&T,10,10;
PASSW:LONGNAME;

put in the password that you are going to use for the account 'longname' (twice) and remember it of course.

Then change the password for the 'root' account

PASSW:ROOT;

You normally setup each user with their own username/password.
This is because you can check later on to see 'who done what' if anything gets broken.

To see all the users
DIS-USER;

If you are upgrading the system ensure that the relevant file is copied to the new Hard Disk and ACT-USER; is carried out.

Download a copy of the V5 AMO's and look at the USER AMO for reference....

thanks for the info. question: is the root password for expert access used by any other app or access in the 4k ? does it only control this function ?
