OSGi web console admin password does not changed

[msina]

Hi,

As part of AEM security checklist there is a item to "Changing the OSGi web console admin password".

Security Checklist

I followed the steps mentioned in the doc but  when i tried to access the "<server>:<port>/system/console/configMgr" still its taking the AEM admin user password.The new password set for OSGI console does not working.

Please suggest.

Try to restart Apache Sling Web Console Security Provider bundle

Thanks

The OSGI console authenticates against using the standard sling authentication mechanism, so the "standard" admin password is used for authentication. But in case no "standard authentication" is available, the fallback is the OSGI admin password.
