Changing your Lotus Notes Full Client and Web password
The problem with lotus notes is that each individual user has actually two
passwords associated with them.
a. The Full Client password (i.e. Located on your machine)
b. The web mail password (i.e. Located through the internet)
These passwords are not synchronized so if you change one you have to change
the other if you want them to be the same. With that being said here are the
steps to go about changing you passwords.
To change your Lotus Notes Full Client password
1.
Choose File - Security - User Security.
2.
Enter you current Lotus Notes Password.
3.
Click Security Basics, and then click "Change Password" under "Your Login and Password Settings."
4.
In the "Change Password" dialog box, enter a new password in the "Enter new password" field, and
then enter it again in the "Re-enter new password" field.
Note Your new password must differ from a certain number of passwords you have used in the past
before you can reuse an old password. The number is set by your administrator and is indicated in the
"Change Password" dialog box. For example, if you had set your password to "Hello" at one time, and
the dialog box states that your new password must differ from your last 4 passwords, you would have
to use 4 new passwords before you could reuse "Hello" again.
5.
Click OK and you are done.
To change your Lotus Notes Web mail password
1.
Click on the database icon in your bookmark bar.
2.
