How to Change Your csmpapp1 Password

You will need to use a command line program like Putty to access csmpapp1 to change your password.  If you do not have Putty loaded on your computer, you can download it from:

http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html

Once downloaded, run it. It will prompt you for the Host Name, which should be csmpapp1.louisville.edu. Click Open and it will prompt you for a password. That should be your old password. It should then prompt you to set a new password. When you are entering your new password, the cursor will not move but it will be accepting what you type. It will then ask you to confirm your new password. After that you should get a command line prompt. At this point, you can enter "exit" to close your Putty session with csmpapp1.
