RE: CA/400 Password - At Startup

["Rogers, Leland" <Leland.Rogers@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We used a similar setup until the auditors told us that it was a security
risk for someone to be able to get to a signon screen without having to
enter a password.  We had to turn off password caching.  We were not given
the option by our parent company of not complying.  Nor were any arguments
listened to.

I merely go back to the passwords in the control panel and change the CA
password.
