Changing User Login Passwords

Forgotten, lost, or expired passwords may cause login security accidents. To reduce password login risks, CBH allows you to change user login passwords in batches.

Constraints

  • You are not allowed to change the password of system administrator admin. It can only be changed in the Profile module as user admin.
  • If your password is changed by batch resetting, change the password when the first time you log in to the CBH system after password resetting. This is because the same password is generated for all selected users during password batch resetting.
  • After you log in to a CBH system, only the passwords of other users can be batch reset.
  • Plaintext passwords cannot be viewed or exported.
  • For users with remote authentication enabled, their passwords can be changed only on the remote authentication server instead of CBH.

Prerequisites

You have the operation permissions for the User module.

Procedure

  1. Log in to the CBH system.
  2. Choose User > User in the navigation pane.
  3. Select the user accounts you want to edit and click More in the lower left corner.
