    Hi again,
    
    when you change the password you have to hit the update password
    button. Then you should get a web page telling you that you password
    has been changed. If you don't get this page your password wasn't
    changed and your old password is still valid.
    
    I have by now 3 cases where this confirmation page did not pop up on
    the first attempt. If you don't get a confirmation, please try
    again. Chances are it will succeed. In any case - please let me know
    so I can forward this to rcf if this turns into a real issue
    
    Thanks
    Chris

      Hi folks,
      
      the weekly reminder to change your rcf password. It is a painless
      process. Just go to

https://web.sdcc.bnl.gov/apps/passwd/

and change it (16 characters minimum, no expiration, no requirements for special characters, the password is being checked against 500mio known passwords)
