Administrators Properties

Use the Administrators property page to do the following tasks:

• View the Windows NT accounts that have permissions to administer the KM server.
• Add and remove administrators.
• Change an administrator's KM server password.

Getting to the Administrators property page

1. In the Administrator window, choose Configuration in the site where the KM server is located.
2. Double-click CA.
3. Select the Administrators tab.

Adding and Removing Advanced Security Administrators

You can make other administrators within your site advanced security administrators if you want to delegate the responsibility of setting up and maintaining advanced security to more than one person.

1. Select the Administrators tab.
2. In the Key Management Server Passwords box, type the required number of advanced security administrator passwords, and then choose OK.
3. To add or remove in the list of advanced security administrators, select the name of the person.
4. Choose Add Administrators or Remove Administrators.
5. Choose OK, and then choose Done.

Changing Your Advanced Security Administrator Password

Each advanced security administrator has a password that must be entered before advanced security tasks can be performed. When you attempt to access or modify security information, the Administrator program prompts you to enter this password.

You are the only person who can change your security password. In general, it is a good idea for all security administrators to change their passwords occasionally. For example, if you suspect that your security password has been compromised, you should change it.

Note   If you have never changed the password, the default password is password.

1. Select the Administrators tab.
2. Choose Change My KM Server Password.
3. Type the KM server password.
4. Type the current password and the new password, and then verify the new password.
