Hi Shikha,

Can you please tell me where do you see this option on your LL instance? (A screenshot would be great.)

Chances are that it could very well be a part of a LL customization / SSO.

Thanks & Regards,

Every user if he /she goes to user's settings is allowed a password change.Note this change of password is changing it in KUAF of livelink.If the livelink was connected as SSO(IWA was doing the auth for e.g) this password change would not do anything.

I am still not sure what the problem is but for an average user who cannot trace the Request handler removing the form fields by jquery or commenting out weblingo may be an option.

RCS(OTDS) seems to give you more stuff in this regard I have heard.I don't use it so don't know.

sounds like a simple customisation of the data passed to tabber.html should be simple enough to trace back the WebLingo / OScript and patch this.

Ideally if the user is an SSO user then the tab should not appear, may seem like a simple thing, but they do remove the Log Out menu option if SSO is enabled - although this is done for ALL users not just SSO users.

Hi All Thanks for the response. I wanted to disable this option only for a single user. We have created a Livelink account and this will be a system account. No users are using it,This will be automatically used by a program, hence we are trying to disable the change password option only for this particular account.
