There is a technet whitepaper - get it, read it, read it again.  There could
be many gotchas depending on your Org and site setup.

Subject: Oh crap. Need to change service account password.


 
You know some days I really like this job, and other days I really hate it.

Apparently my boss in his infinite wisdom decided it would be wise to give a
bunch of people that know nothing about Exchange the service account
password.  A result of this was the deletion of several mailboxes and one
IMS connector.  Needless to say I was nowhere around at the time, perhaps if
I had been I would have been able to put a stop to this.  So it looks like I
need to change my service account password and not tell my boss what it is.

So I'm making a checklist of where the password gets used.  Obviously all
the MS Exchange services.  Is there any other place where I will need to
type in the new password?  Any other concerns I should have in doing this?

Help most appreciated. 

Thanks
Eric
