6.3 Changing the Password of the RConsoleJ Agent

You can change the agent password to ensure that RConsoleJ sessions are secure.

To change the agent password for a remotely managed NetWare server, do the following at the System Console prompt:

  1. Enter unload rconag6.

  2. Enter rconag6 encrypt.

  3. Enter a new password.

  4. Enter the TCP port number.

    The default is 2034.

  5. Enter the SPX™ port number.

    The default is 16800.

  6. Enter the TCP port number for the secure session.

    The default is 2036.

  7. When prompted to write the displayed load command to the ldrconag.ncf file, type y and then press any key.

    If you type y, the ldrconag.ncf file is updated and the new password is in effect when the agent is loaded from the command in the ldrconag.ncf script file after you reboot the server.

    If you type n, the ldrconag.ncf file is not updated. The new password is valid only for the current session. At a later time, if you load RCONAG6 from the ldrconag.ncf file, the previously saved password is used.
