How a user can change their internet password if they also have a Notes ID

Barbara Skedel  |     |  Tags:  id password internet notes  |  Comments (2)
Somewhere along the way (I believe starting with v8.5), if you register a user with a Notes ID, they cannot change their internet password. The option in DWA preferences doesn't appear for them. However, they can use the following URL to change their internet password:

http://servername/mailpath/mailfilename.nsf?changepassword

1 Chris Whisonant      Permalink I think some of the newer options in the Configuration Document are changing what used to be a default behavior. Check your iNotes tab in the config doc and go to the Other Settings section at the bottom right. There's an option to allow for "modification of internet password". Do you have this enabled or disabled?

2 Barbara Skedel      Permalink The modification of internet password is set to enabled. I was mistaken in that the change password option doesn't appear for the user; it does, but when the person fills out the form and clicks OK, the following error appears - "Password change process failed. Password was NOT changed."

According to technote #1298572, this is due to the security policy setting "Update Internet Password When Notes Client Password Changes", for users who do not have a Notes id embedded in their mail file (which we don't do). By using the URL I put in my blog, the change works.
