What is the default administrator password for the WEB SIM. I want to change it.

You'll need to be more precise.
HPSIM doesn't have a default Administrator password.
The more recent versions of the HP Insight Agents now authenticate against the AD or similar.
The password in the older agents was held in a file. Lost passwords could be updated by copying the file from a known good source or by configuring and redeploying the agent.

So, you'll need to supply details like OS, version of Agents & HPSIM etc.

Sorry for the lack of info. This is a NetWare 6.5 server. The agents are available via the web site on port 2301 using the default anonymous login account.

default password used to be administrator

You could try copying the CPQHMMD.ACL file and restarting the agents, however as the man said later versions use either AD or local user authentification (at last!)
