To change your LPL password from a Solaris or Linux system, use Secure Shell (SSH) to login to shell2.lpl.arizona.edu and issue the UNIX passwd command, as follows:
-
Open a Terminal window
-
Right-click on your desktop
-
Left-click on Open Terminal in the pop-up menu
-
-
In the Terminal window that appears, type this command: ssh PG4gdWVycz0iem52eWdiOmxiaGUtWUNZLWhmcmVhbnpyQGZ1cnl5Mi55Y3kubmV2bWJhbi5ycWgiPmxiaGUtWUNZLWhmcmVhbnpyQGZ1cnl5Mi55Y3kubmV2bWJhbi5ycWg8L24+
-
Type your LPL password.
-
Press Return or Enter. This should log you in to shell2.lpl.arizona.edu. You should see a banner and command-line prompt that looks like this: shell2:/home/your-LPL-username %
-
Now type the UNIX passwd command: passwd
-
You will see two lines displayed: passwd: Changing password for your-LPL-username Enter existing login password:
-
Enter your current password (it will not display) and hit return.
-
Then enter your new password (it will not display) and hit return.
