Managing Change-Password Events

Depending on your password rules, users might be required to change their passwords regularly. These passwords are stored on the application server. When passwords are changed on the application server, SecureLogin updates its password store. This is why SecureLogin handles password changes for all applications that are enabled for single sign-on.

To ensure that SecureLogin changes its stored passwords whenever users change their passwords, you need to update the application's script to include the Change Password routine.

  1. Display the application's Change Password dialog box.

    The Change Password dialog box must be displayed so that the Add Applications Wizard can identify the window. The following figure illustrates the Change Password dialog box for Password Test.

  2. Right-click the SecureLogin icon on the task bar, select Add Applications, then click Next.

  3. In the Welcome to SecureLogin dialog box, click Next.

  4. Select Web Page or Windows Application, depending on your application, then click Next.

  10. Click Finish.

    This process adds or updates the script's Change Password section. For information on the ChangePassword command, see "ChangePassword" in the Nsure SecureLogin 3.51.2 Scripting Guide.

  11. To have the setting apply at the container level, copy the script from SecureLogin on the desktop to the application's script in the container.
