Change an Encrypted Value

To change an encrypted value that is already specified

Delete all text after the parameter name and give it a new value.

Example:

Suppose the line you want to change is:

PASSWORD.ENCRYPTED=12 0F 36 79 65 AB D0 37 ...

Then you have to delete:

.ENCRYPTED=12 0F 36 79 65 AB D0 37 ...

Then type in an equal sign and the new parameter value, (in an unencrypted form) replacing NEWVALUE with your desired value, as follows:

PASSWORD=NEWVALUE

Then save the file as an edit file and encrypt it using the encryption procedure.
