Safe to change Sophos Database User password?

Unfortunately I forgot the password for the sophos database user. Is it safe to just change it in AD User management?

  • Hi,

    Changing just the password you'll break the system.

    You don't mention the version of SEC, but if you're running SEC 5.x you can just:

    Re-run: "C:\sec_5x\ServerInstaller\setup,exe", select all the same options and you'll modify the install to use the new password.

    So change the password for the account.

    Re-run setup.exe 

    Choose the same options.

    Regards,

    Jak
