Initial Temporary Passwords for All Servers

If you have never logged into an account (i.e. you are a new student, faculty or staff member) you will use the following username and password:

Your username is your first initial followed by the first 7 letters of your last name.  Your name may be truncated further and have a number appended if someone already has that username.  For example, John Q. Exampleuser's username would be jexample.  If at some time after that, Jane L. Exampleuser were to get an account, her username would be jexampl1.

Your temporary password is in the following format:  temp!x00, where x is your middle initial and 00 are the last two digits of your social security number.  If you did not supply a middle initial to the University, use x.  If you did not supply a social security number, use 00.

Having Problems Changing DOMAIN1 Passwords???

The rules are provided below:

1.   The password must be at least six (6) characters long.

2.   The characters that make up a password must come from three (3) out of four (4) of the character classes below:

a.   Uppercase characters (A, B, C, …, Z)

b.  Lowercase characters (a, b, c, …, z)

c.   Numeric digits (0, 1, 2, …, 9)

d.  Punctuation marks ( !@#$%^&*-+ …, etc)

3.   The password cannot contain any part of your login id or full name.

If you have simply forgotten your password, as in the past, you will have to see the attendant at the window of Robinson Hall Room 524 to log a request to force a new temporary password.  The temporary password may not be immediately available for your use.

Changing your password via Outlook Web Access

1. To change your password in Outlook Web Access (OWA), click on the options shortcut in the right-hand pane of your browser. If you do not see the options button, click on the shortcuts button at the top of the pane.

Note: If you receive a message stating that the name on the security certificate is invalid or does not match the site name, click the yes button to continue. This happens because a site can only utilize one security certificate at a time and the mail server can be accessed using various names. Also, if you are using Linux as your operating system, you may receive another message that the certification authority is unrecognized. Click ok to continue. This happens because the security certificate we use is issued by our own server.

2. In the right-hand pane, the options screen will appear. Scroll towards the bottom and the second from the last button on the page reads ‘change password’.

3. Another window will pop-up that looks like the following picture.

(if you only see four boxes, precede your user name with ‘domain1\’; without the quotes and note the use of a backslash and not a forward slash)

Under account, enter your assigned user name. Enter your old or expired domain password (not your student registration password) in the ‘old password’ box and enter your new password (making sure to follow the password generation rules) in both the ‘New Password’ and ‘Confirm New Password’ boxes.

4. Click the ‘OK’ button after you are done. The resulting screen will inform you if your password had been successfully changed. If you made an error, the resulting screen will inform you of the reason why the password change was not accepted and you will have to run through these steps again.

Configuring Outlook 2000 for LHU Exchange Server in the labs

Click the Finish button.
