On all other servers in the server farm, type the following line at the command prompt, and then press
ENTER:
stsadm -o updatefarmcredentials -userlogin DomainName\UserName -password NewPassword –local

Restart Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) 6.0. To do this, type the following line at the
command prompt, and then press ENTER:
