3 Go to <add key="user" value="superadmin" /> and change the "superadmin" value to the name of the appropriate user (you may also
leave as "superadmin").
The "superadmin" format can be any method that can authenticate to the Security Management Server. The SAM account name,
UPN, or domain\username is acceptable. Any method that can authenticate to the Security Management Server is acceptable
because validation is required for that user account for authorization against Active Directory.
For example, in a multi-domain environment, only entering a SAM account name such as "jdoe" will likely fail because the Security
Management Server will not be able to authenticate "jdoe" because it cannot nd "jdoe". In a multi-domain environment, the UPN is
recommended, although the domain\username format is acceptable. In a single domain environment, the SAM account name is
acceptable.
4 Go to <add key="epw" value="<encrypted value of the password>" /> and change "epw" to "password". Then change "<encrypted
value of the password>" to the password of the user from Step 3. This password is re-encrypted when the Security Management
Server restarts.
If using "superadmin" in Step 3, and the superadmin password is not "changeit", it must be changed here. Save and close the le.
