Changing a password

Can you tell me how one changes a password? I found some references in other issues about the file

/SAM/smarts/local/conf/serverConnect.conf as well as /SAM/smarts/local/conf/serverConnect.conf and further investigation showed me that this file also exists in /CONSOLE/....

The references I found talked about changing passwords that came with the install back to their default, i.e. admin, oper.

If we have added a user and user profile to global manager administration which file(s) do we need to update in order to set the password. Once the user is setup and useable what is the correct process for changing the password?

can sm_edit be used to update just one of the entries? all of the references I found had the user updating the password for all of the accounts at the same time and I just need to update one of them. I wasn't sure if sm_edit, because of how it encrypts, needs you to change all of them or if it will just alter the one that is changed.

Any advice would be welcome.

thanks!
