CHANGING THE SA PASSWORD
The SA account allows access to SQL Server. The default password for the SA account is dsserviceuser. For security reasons, some networks prohibit the use of default passwords. If you need to change the password for this account, complete the following steps (you must be logged on to Windows as an administrator):
1.Copy SAPASS.CMD and CHANGESA.SQL from the UTIL directory of the Server/VAU CD to the C:\DigitalSentry directory on the server.
2.Open CHANGESA.SQL using Notepad. Find the following line: sp_password NULL, ‘password’,’sa’
where password is the current password for the SA account.
3.Change the password as desired. Save and close the file (make sure the file name does not change).
4.From the Start menu, select Programs>Accessories>Command Prompt.
5.In Command Prompt, type the following items (press Enter at the end of each line): cd Digital Sentry
sapass
A Notepad message appears when the procedure is complete.
6.Close Command Prompt and the Notepad file.
