Remote User forgotten password !!
Posted: 03 Sep 08 6:04 AM

I've got a remote user who's forgotten his password.
I've changed it on admin and have logged into the sync client on his laptop as admin and performed a number of syncs. doing the sync server - sync remote method. The user still can't log into his database.
Anyone got any suggestions for me ?
Thanks  |

| I would be interested to hear how this goes, as we had the same situation recently and had to re-cut their DB. No amount of syncing would fix it. Its like password changes aren't synced in some situations. |

There's a devious way - it's a real hack.
Change the password on the host. Then copy the encrypted password string for the affected user from the USERSECURITY table (USERPW) and UPDATE the same field in the user's local db.
The user should then be able to log in with the new password and, if the new password does eventually sync out, it will cause no issues because it is the same in both places.
