Password Reset Prerequisites

[support 45]

To enable Passwordstate to reset passwords for accounts on remote hosts in your environment, you must ensure you have the following prerequisites set up:

 

• Web server and remote host requirements -  https://www.clickstudios.com.au/downloads/version7/Password_Discovery_Reset_and_Validation_Requirements.pdf
• In the Passwordstate user interface:
  • Hosts need to be added in under the Reset -> Hosts screen
  • Some systems require a Privileged Account to perform the password reset on the remote host. To determine if you need to set up a Privileged Account, check Help -> Passwordstate User Manual -> KB Articles -> Password Resets -> Password Reset Scripts and Requirements. To create a Privileged Account, see Help -> Security Administrators Manual -> Privileged Account Credentials
  • A Password List that is configured for Password Resets (Screenshot below of this setting when creating or editing a Password List)
