Q: 

How to update Database User Password in Moss 2007 after changing it?

Being concerned about Security, I change my DataBase password over a period of time. So once this change happens, I also should update the same in all relative applications, and I am stuck with doing that on MOSS 2007.

How can we update the DataBase User password on a MOSS 2007?

I should add that you shouldn't manually modify the IIS properties associated with the SharePoint farm. In the best case SharePoint will just undo/ignore your change, in the worst case things blow up. Using stsadm and Central Admin as suggested in the article is the correct approach.

Yes Mayo is right. you have no need to use IIS and sharepoint

I have been changing the Application Pool pwd from IIS. Some times the it automtically stops running and I dont see any issues in the Event viewer except for Audit failure. Is this the right way or should we be doing this from STSADM?
