There are a few more places that you will need to edit.

SAS Tech Support have a document that explains what you need to do – TS736 – Changing Password for Default Users

The doc is orientated towards a solutions based install, but you will need to follow most of the steps, depending on what products you have installed (i.e. Business Intelligence Server, Data Integration Server etc)

As you will see lots of text edits required, but I wont rant about why this shouldn’t be so difficult, here’s hoping SAS 9.2 makes it a little easier…..
