How the hell do you change default user name and password on Citrix Branch Repeater for Windows Server

I cant…

Spent a long time looking for answers – how to re-set the default Admin user password on our Branch Repeaters for Windwos Server 3.0.3.

Ends up all the documentation can tell you is that “ For security, the Administrator password should be changed from its default value.”

Couldn’t find this in any of the GUI in Windows. Resorted to putty into the box and still can’t change it as the admin account can’t be amended. Bugger

Ended up disabling SSH  via Configuration > Tuning in the GUI. Bye bye console…

NOTE: SSH DOES need to be enabled, if it’s switched off the branch repeater is unable to see its paired repeater across site
