TANDBERG V 11.8 manual Advanced Configuration, Change password for tms-service, Change log path

Advanced Configuration

The ‘Advanced’ Button allows you to change the password for the tms-service account created in Active Directory. You can also change the log path, define e- mail options for outgoing e-mails, rebuild the TMS server connection and select options for Asynchronous meeting requests.

Change password for tms-service

Used to set a new password for the tms-service account, used by the syn- cronizer. This account is created during installation. This must be changed here and not through AD Users and Computers so that the Integration stored set- tings are updated as well as Active Directory.
