EP7's "generate new password" will give what password?

[Former Member]

Hi!

On EP7 UME, there is a button called "generate new password".

It is convenient bu we dont know what is the generated password.

I searched the configtool for the default setting but failed to find one.

Please advise. Thanks a lot!

Hi,

It is that when you configure your email, each time you say generate password, an autogenerated password is emailed to the user in question.

Let me know if you have any further queries on the same.

Sandeep:

In the configuration tab, there are some fileds as follows:

The host name of the SMTP server:

The system (mandatory):

Administrator:

Would you please help give the value of each field.

For example, the SMTP server should be the mail server?

Thanks!

Thanks!

Why we need 2 email addresses to be put there?

Thanks again.

Hi,

The system email is used if the sender or the recipient does not have an e-mail address in his or her user profile.

Central Administrator

This e-mail address appears as the sender in notification mails sent from the administrator or system to a user (for example, when the administrator resets a user password). When users send notification e-mails to administrators, the e-mails are sent to this e-mail address.

Use this setting to send all administrator requests to one central e-mail address, instead of sending the e-mail to several administrators, or to hide the e-mail address of individual administrators behind a central administrative e-mail address.

The generated password is a random string.

Is there any way to pre-difine a string for multiple users' password generation? So that

all selected users will have the same pre-defined password?

Thanks!

Sandee:

Points are NOT an issue :}.

Your new link is about federated portal which is not our case.

Please advise more.
