Domain Administrator password change?
in [Security]

From: Allie on 4 Jan 2010 12:52 Hi, Are there any other repercussions for changeing the domain administrator password other than services that depend on that password not starting (for instance, would it cause other problems for Exchange)? I am talking about the domain admin password that was used during the domain creation. Thanks a million, Allie

Otherwise (actually, notwithstanding) you *should* change this and all domain passwords periodically - and the domain administrator account password would probably be better very long and complicated and only pulled out of a locked safe in case of an emergency - using other accounts to manage your domain with accountability per administrator. -- Shenan Stanley MS-MVP -- How To Ask Questions The Smart Way http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
