2.7 Re-registering with a new password

If you have forgotten your password, you cannot access your BSCW workspaces any more — and, of course, you cannot change your password as described in 2.6.

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

Open the registration page of your BSCW server (on FIT’s public BSCW server this is http://bscw.fit.fraunhofer.de/pub) and click [reregister].
Enter one of the email addresses which BSCW has already associated with your user name (e.g. your primary email address) and submit the form.
BSCW will send a message to that address, which contains the URL of a form that allows you to enter a new password.
