Do you have a working Zimbra Mail Server / Carbonio Mail Server installation and you would like to reset admin user password?. Zimbra / Carbonio is an enterprise grade email solution that has been adopted by thousands of users around world as email and collaboration suite of choice.
At the time of the installation you’re required to create first admin user that is used to login to both Administration and Web client portal after install. For Zimbra this user is called admin, and on Carbonio it’s called zextras.
To get all admin user accounts in Carbonio or Zimbra use the commands show below.
### On Zimbra ###
[root@mail ~]# su - zimbra
[zimbra@mail ~]$ zmprov gaaa
[email protected]
### On Carbonio ###
[root@mail ~]# su - zextras
[zimbra@mail ~]$ zmprov gaaa
[email protected]
To reset the password from the command line run:
zmprov sp {name@domain|id|adminName} {password}
Example
zmprov sp [email protected] StrongUserPassword
In the example we’ve set the password for admin user account [email protected]
to StrongUserPassword.
