cannot access to VM with old password

[nyeinzaw89]

Hi all,

     I run one Redhat VM on VMware ESXi. Today morning i can access my VM with old credentials and later noon i cannot access with my old credentials. It showing "Connection closed" and if i login via web console "If i typed correct password it's like nothing changes" if i typed wrong password it's showing incorrect password. When i checked at log i only see "A ticket of type MKS has been acquired".

It seems to be VM OS issue and nothing to do with ESXi. If you want you may reset the password, follow the link:
