Re: ADAM and User Passwords

Hi

the passwords for ADAM users are stored within ADAM
they should not be related in any way to the windows account used
for the ADAM service.

If ADAM is installed in a workgroup environment and is using the local
ADMIN
account to start the service and user passwords are stored in ADAM will
changing the ADMIN password for the local account wipe out the user
passwords? Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
