Forms: Password Reset Request

If a local user has forgotten their PhixFlow Password, they can use this form to request a password reset.

Info

Users who login using a Microsoft Windows username and domain (or other external authorization mechanism) cannot use this option to reset their password, and should instead contact their local administrator or support desk.

Note that users are configured to use one of the password policies that you set up. A property of a password policy is whether users are allowed to reset their passwords. Therefore not all users will be allowed to perform this request.

Also note that in order for a successful password request to occur the entered username must be valid, the user must have a valid email address for the request to be sent too and the user must have also correctly configured all 3 security questions and answers. If all these conditions are met, then the password request is issued by sending an email to the requested users email address. The email will contain an embedded link which the user must click to continue with the password reset process.
