In E2K, you don't need one, so don't create one. In E5.5, you need one, and you better change it when that admin leaves. No telling what kind of back doors he's left open. When you do that, be sure to catch all dependent services. Also be sure to use clever ALT characters in the password to keep brute force password crackers from having a field day with it.

Sent: Wednesday, November 06, 2002 12:51 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Service account password change What's the general recommendation on changing service account passwords. Should it be done periodically for security reasons, perhaps when an Admin leaves the company. Is there a good online reference for all the considerations in making the change. Thanks all.
