Changing the SQL Server administrator (sa) password6.
Important!
This topic applies only to Database Servers (including single-host, standalone, and
single-server configurations).
The IMPAX installation changes the default sa password to a randomly generated string of characters.
This greatly increases the security of the system; however, the password can still be obtained through
other methods.
To ensure that your system is as secure as possible, we recommend updating the sa password to a strong
password that is known only by the site administrator.
Note:
Do this only after the Application Server software has been installed and configured.
To change the SQL Server administrator password
1. On an IMPAX Database Server, log in using the AgfaService account.
2. Open a command prompt.
3. Change to the C:\mvf\bin directory.
4. To find out what the current sa password is, type
passkey -M QUERY -u sa -r c:\mvf\mvf.psd
5. To update the password, type
sqlcmd -U sa -P password -d master -Q "sp_password 'old_password', 'new_password', 'sa'"
A message indicates that the password was changed.
6. To log out, type exit.
