Rich,
An installation of a new Notes Client, on a PC with a new user that I don't
know there password. The only ID file I have for this user is the one that
is in the password recovery database. Even if I copy the ID file to the
data directory on the new PC the initial setup of the client is asking for
a password, I try to give it the password from the ID recover box and it
says wrong password.
Thanks,

Scott,
Are you referring to the creation of a new user with the ID Recovery DB?
Or are you referring to the installation of a new user with the ID in the
mail file / floppy / location?

Re: Password management
Rich,
It doesn't seem to work on a new install, is there a way to recover the
password for a clean install if you don't have the users password?

I use the ID Recovery Database when a user decides to change their
password and then forgets what they just changed it to. I was never
allowed to set password policies or database quotas. Got to be real
messy.

Re: Password management
Password policy? What's that? About a year and a half ago our CEO (former
VP of IT) mandated the new policy. No password expiration at all and we
couldn't require "complex" passwords. So I'm using my Level 3 password
quality scale with minimum of 6 characters.
When I register a user I create an ID in the address book (eases client
installs), mail file (has to be there for DWA encryption/signing), and on
a mapped drive to a subfolder on my mail server's data directory.
