Change the Samba share password

You can change the Samba share password for the KACE Systems Deployment Appliance or Remote Site Appliance. The Samba share drivers and restore directories are for uploading drivers and backing up and restoring library components, scripted installations, system images, boot environments, network inventory, and network scans. The clientdrop share is for uploading larger files in application tasks.

NOTE: The default account name is admin and the default password is also admin.

1.	KACE Systems Deployment Appliance only.

a.	On the left navigation pane, click Settings > Control Panel to display the Control Panel, then click General Settings to display the General Settings page.

b.	Under Server Options, in SDA Samba Share Password, enter a new password.

2.	Remote Site Appliance only.

a.	On the left navigation pane, click Settings > Control Panel to display the Control Panel, then click Remote Site Settings to display the Remote Site Settings page.

The account password for the Samba share is changed. Your Windows KACE Boot Environments are updated automatically to include the new password. This process may take a few minutes for each KBE.
