The ReadyNAS administrator can change user passwords from the Admin Page (see
Edit User Accounts on page 143).
Users can also change their passwords using the ReadyNAS change password tool.
To change the password of your ReadyNAS user account:
1. On a computer that uses the same LAN as your ReadyNAS system, open a web
browser and type:
https://<ReadyNAS IP address>/password_recovery/my_password.html
where <ReadyNAS IP address> is the IP address of the ReadyNAS.
The ReadyNAS change password tool displays in the browser window.
2. In the User Name and Old Password fields, enter your ReadyNAS user account
credentials.
3. In the New Password and Re-enter Password fields, enter your new password.
4. Click the OK button.
Your settings are saved.
Group Accounts
Use Local Users mode to manually create, manage, and delete group accounts on your
ReadyNAS storage system.
The group account procedures assume that your ReadyNAS system is currently in Local
Users mode. For more information about changing user and group management modes,
see User and Group Management Modes on page 138.
