| − |
| |
| − | == Changing Password ==

| − | Once you have logged into MongoDB successfully you can change the default password:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | db.updateUser("myStudentNumber",
| |
| − | {
| |
| − | pwd: "myNewPassword",
| |
| − | }
| |
| − | );
| |
| − |
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Replacing myStudentNumber with your University student number and myNewPasswor with your new password.
