Tips when resetting University of Luxembourg Active Directory password on a Mac#
To reset your UL AD password when using a Mac:
- Go to https://owa.uni.lu and change your password there.
- Before rebooting your Mac, you should change your keychain password to avoid any issues down the road. To do so, run the following command
security set-keychain-password "/Users/YOURHOME/Library/Keychains/login.keychain-db" - If you use FileVault, after the first reboot, first enter your old password, then the new one. Normally, FileVault will sync and update with your new password after you reboot.
