Step 13 Click Next.
Step 14 By default, the account that you created for Cisco Unity directory services appears. If you want to choose
a different account, click Change.
Step 15 Specify a password for the account, and click Next.
Step 16 When message store configuration is complete, click Finish.
When the wizard is complete, the Set New Default Passwords page appears in the main window.
Setting New Default Passwords
From the Cisco Unity Installation and Configuration Assistant, you run the Password Hardening wizard
fifth to set new default passwords for the Default Administrator and the Default Subscriber templates.
When all of the following conditions are true, Cisco recommends that you specify an extremely long and
complex password for the Active Directory password in the Default Subscriber template:
• Subscribers will access messages only by using the phone.
• Subscribers will not have access to the Cisco Personal Communications Assistant.
• You will be creating Cisco Unity subscribers by using the Cisco Unity Administrator.
When a subscriber is created by using the Cisco Unity Administrator, an Active Directory account is
automatically created for that subscriber, too. The password on the Active Directory account is the
password in the Default Subscriber template.
Caution Anyone who knows the password for the Active Directory account, knows the alias for a subscriber, and
knows on which Exchange server the voice messages for that subscriber are stored can access those
messages.
To Set New Default Passwords
Step 1 On the Set New Default Passwords page, click Run the Password Hardening Wizard.
Step 2 Follow the on-screen prompts.
When the Password Hardening wizard finishes, the Integrate the Phone System with Cisco Unity page
appears in the main window.
