Setting a User Password
Use the following commands based on your operating system:
Windows
To set a new password for a user on a Windows system, open a PowerShell terminal and execute the following command:
& "C:\Program Files\N3uron\bin\n3uron.exe" user set password <username> <new-password>Linux
To set a new password for a user on a Linux system, open a Bash terminal and execute the following command:
/opt/n3uron/bin/n3uron user set password <username> <new-password>Note
Replace <username> and <new-password> with the actual user account name and the desired new password.
Expiring a User Password
Expiring a user's password marks it as invalid and forces the user to set a new password upon their next successful login.
Use the following commands based on your operating system:
Windows
To expire a password for a user on a Windows system, open a PowerShell terminal and execute the following command:
& "C:\Program Files\N3uron\bin\n3uron.exe" user expire password <username>Linux

Resetting Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
If a user loses access to their 2FA authenticator and is unable to log in, the System Administrator can reset the 2FA settings for a specific user to restore access.
Windows
To reset the 2FA for a user on a Windows system, open a PowerShell terminal and execute the following command:
& "C:\Program Files\N3uron\bin\n3uron.exe" user reset 2fa local <username>Linux
To reset the 2FA for a user on a Linux system, open a Bash terminal and execute the following command:
