Setting Passwords or Disabling Default Login Accounts

Set new passwords for the sccadmin and sccuser accounts if you plan to use the accounts. If you do not plan to use the accounts, disable them.

Prerequisites
Before disabling the sccadmin account:
Task
  1. In a text editor, open the csi.properties file:
    • Windows: %SYBASE%\SCC-3_1\conf\csi.properties
    • UNIX: $SYBASE/SCC-3_1/conf/csi.properties
  2. Search for =sccadmin.
    The line containing =sccadmin and the lines following should look like this:
    CSI.loginModule.2.options.username=sccadmin
    CSI.loginModule.2.options.password=
    CSI.loginModule.2.options.roles=uaAgentAdmin,uaPluginAdmin,sccAdminRole
    CSI.loginModule.2.options.encrypted=false
  3. (Optional) To disable the sccadmin account, comment out the sccadmin block of the file by inserting a number or hash symbol (#) at the beginning of every line. Do the same for sccuser, then skip to step 11.
  4. Encrypt and copy a password for the sccadmin account. (See Encrypting a Password.)
  5. Paste the encrypted password at the end of the line that ends with password=.
  6. On the bottom line, change encrypted=false to encrypted=true.
  7. Encrypt and copy a different password for sccuser.
  8. Return to csi.properties and search for =sccuser.
  9. Paste the encrypted password at the end of sccuser’s password= line.
  10. On the bottom line of the sccuser block, change encrypted=false to encrypted=true.
  11. Save the file and exit.
  12. To make the new or disabled passwords take effect, restart Sybase Control Center. (See Starting and Stopping Sybase Control Center in Windows or Starting and Stopping Sybase Control Center in UNIX.)
