Due to a system issue, those of you who use backdoor passwords at http://edison.blackboard.com to login to CE6, may have found that those passwords no longer work.
To help solve this issue in a timely, orderly manner, and to give you the ability to reset should a future issue occur, we are taking the following steps:
- If you cannot login to CE6 via backdoor access, please reply to this e-mail stating that your CE6 Password is not working. You can and will continue to be able to access CE6 via the myEdison Portal > Faculty Academics Tab. Keep in mind, if you are working on a development shell, you can access it from the Portal: After going to your course, click "My CE6 Home" from the upper right side of the blue banner to return to your course list.
I will reset the passwords on Monday and e-mail you with a temporary password. (Those of you who have had your passwords reset Friday, you will not need to do this step) - After you have the temporary password from me, please change your password using the tutorial linked below. Follow all steps, including setting your secret question. A secret question is a question that you will be asked, should you ever need to reset your password using the automatic system password reset. Obviously, the question should be something that only you can answer. Do not forget to enter the answer and keep if for future reference! Here is the tutorial:
