For SmartServer 4.3 Update 1 and prior, the SmartConnect CMS password for the default apollo and admin user accounts is configured in the smartserver.ini file with the SmartConnect installation. The password that is defined in the smartserver.ini file does not  have any effect on the Raspberry Pi OS / SmartConnect Configuration page password. This section describes how to change SmartConnect CMS user passwords.
