Changing your Content management (WWW) password
This How-to is intended for:
Any audience.
To change your WWW password you need access to your EECE email and a web browser. Before you set your WWW password make sure that you have chosen a good password. See: How do you choose a good password? (http://staff.ee.uwa.edu.au/support/csu/docs/how-to/choosing-good-passwords). For security reasons we check passwords and will close any account that does not pass the checks without prior notice (if you have a bad password your account could have been cracked and we don't want to notify the cracker)
To set your initial password:
- Go to http://staff.ee.uwa.edu.au/mail_password_form
- Enter your user name and click "start password reset" as indicated. You username is the first part of you EECE email address (eg "testuser@ee.uwa.edu.au" has a username of "testuser")
- If all goes will you will see a page that says "Password reset
confirmation sent" If not then see below.
- You will get an email to your school email address with subject of "Password reset request" In it there is a link. Got to the link address and enter your username and password.
- You will now be able to use that username and password to log on to the school WWW sites.
