Reset password in CMS SUpervisor 13?

[bnabound]

Hi everyone,

I'm completely new to my telecom role in my company and one of our non-admin users has forgotten his CMS Supervisor 13 password. I've tried Googling a solution and searching through this site but was only able to get replies about something called CentreVu or Terminal Emulator which I don't recognize or have have installed.
Is it possible to change someone's password without the Terminal Emulator or the CentreVu application and if yes... how?

I appreciate your help

Chris

I copied the following text from this site a few years ago, so someone else should get the credit of writing it:

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.


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

Use term emulator.

Login and at the main CMS screen hit f3
go to Unix r System
type su at the prompt
type int he root password
type passwd username
enter new password
type passwd -f username

* -f will force the user to reset the password after successfully loggin in
