Changing passwords


MobiLink provides a mechanism for end users to change their password. The interface differs between UltraLite and Adaptive Server Anywhere clients.

To prompt your end users to enter MobiLink passwords

The new password is not verified until the next synchronization attempt. For the dbmlsync utility, or if you prompt at synchronization time in an UltraLite application, this attempt is almost immediate.

An initial password can be set in the consolidated server or on the first synchronization attempt. For more information, see Providing initial passwords for users and Synchronizations from new users.

Once a password is assigned, you cannot reset the password to NULL from the client side.
