Good Afternoon, is there a way to recover a lost password for connecting to local targets. The default credentials were changed and the password was lost. The userid was found in a the configuration document and the password value in hashed form. Thank you.

Hello,
In such cases the following instruction can be applied:
Edit the starwind.cfg file and replace its authentication section with the following values:
<authentication>
<!--Username and password used for the control connection.-->
<Login value="test"/>
<Password value="##CY9rzUYh03PK3k6DJie09g=="/>
<!--CHAP authentification for control connections-->
<!--
<CtlAuthMode value="chap"/>
<CtlAuthServerName value="srv"/>
<CtlAuthServerSecret value="123"/>
<CtlAuthClientName value="user"/>
<CtlAuthClientSecret value="345"/>
-->
</authentication>
Then restart StarWind service. Lauch StarWind management console press the right mouse button over the connection (localhost:3260 for example) and select "Preferences" popup menu item. Make sure that "Anonymous connection" and "Use CHAP authentication" checkboxes are not enabled. Press OK button. Once again press the rigth mouse button over the connection and select "Connect..." popup menu item. Login dialog will appear. Use test"/test as username and password to login.
Thank you.
