Hi,

My JTS is Connected with LDAP. Recently we changed the ldap bind password and we are not able to login to the application.. Now i would want to update the bind password on my WebSphere Application Server.

Request to let us know, how to crack the WAS admin console password to get inside Websphere Application server.

Thanks,
Sadanand

Hi Sadanand,


You have to follow the procedure in the below technote to disable WAS security and login to WAS to update the LDAP Bind Password.


  1. a. Disable administrative security.
  2. b. Update the LDAP Bind Password
  3. c. Enable administrative security.
  4. d. Restart the WebSphere Application Server(clearing the cache)
Hope this helps!

Hi Sadanand, The WAS instance should be running to execute the command.  If yes, a restart of WAS is required for the change to take effect.  Best Regards, Bharath

Hi Sadanand, IHS doesn't play any role in this scenario. May be you can reach out to WAS support to identify why the command doesn't work. Alternatively, you may disable it in security.xml file as suggested in the below technote: https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/how-manually-disable-global-administrative-security-ibm-websphere-application-server-was Be sure to backup that file before editing. Best Regards, Bharath
