A New Network

[GRitchie]

I've joined a school as NM and I'm currently on a crossover week with their current NM.

How would you go about ensuring you've changed every password possible?

 

I'd also like to change all of the WiFi passwords - I guess the best way to do this is to deploy a batch script with the exported NEW network settings to each machine, before changing?

 

All advice is welcome!

I'd be wary of rushing into anything and suddenly finding you broke XYZ services around the school as you changed one password, but not a locally set/configured one etc.

 

Also wifi wise would depend on how it's setup originally, as to whether it's certificate/radius based, password based etc etc

No Documentation on service accounts and where passwords are used????!!

Be weary of changing admin passwords if you don't know where else they might be linked to - scheduled tasks etc.

Here the domain Admin is only for domain access - services, SQL etc. all have independent accounts so should the domain admin password need changing, has no impact.
