Sign into CMS with the root logon. At the # prompt, enter the command passwd <userid> and enter a default password for the user. I following this with the command passwd -f <userid> to force the user to change his password the next time he logs into CMS.

Another option it to use the &quot;admintool&quot; program. Login to the Solaris box using the GUI, pull up a terminal program and type &quot;admintool&quot;.
It's a nice tool for changing/viewing various user configuration parameters.

If you login as root you can also use passwd -d <user-ID> then the user can enter his own new password. I think it's easier than always searching for a new PW
