Use this procedure to change the password for the default content access account. The default content access account is the account that is used to crawl content. This account can be overridden by specifying a different account by using a crawl rule. This account must have the Read permission for the content that the account is crawling. It is a best practice to limit the account's access to the content to read-only. If the account password expires and is not updated, the search feature will be unable to crawl content.

Only change the default content access account's password if it has been changed in Active Directory. The credentials that you enter are checked against those on the domain controller. If you enter the new password before the password is changed on the domain controller, an error will result and the settings will not be changed.
