2.7 Re-registering with a new password

Forgot your password?

If you have forgotten your password, you cannot access your BSCW workspaces any more -- and, of course, you cannot change your password in the normal way.

For this emergency case, BSCW provides a specific procedure to assign a new password without having to provide the old one:

  • Open the registration form (on FIT's public BSCW server at: http://bscw.gmd.de/Overview.html) to register again.
  • Enter one of your email addresses which BSCW has already associated with your user name (e. g. your primary email address) and submit the form.

BSCW will send an email to that address. This email contains the URL of a form that allows you to change the password for your user name without having to provide the old password.
