Hi Vlaho,
Have a look at this good thread from November of last year. There are excellent answers for Gonz, Scott and Esteban for both CCM 4.X and CCM 5.X;
Hope this helps!

To change the password phrase
=========================
You can use Adminutility tool to reset the Private password phrase, this tool only runs on
the Publisher and needs to be done after hours since it stops services; here is the path
and the steps to run it.
C:\ProgramFiles\Cisco\Bin\adminutility.exe
Log into the utility as Administrator and select the very top checkbox to select all
accounts. Then go to Options and Set new password
It will ask you for the password phrase, and the tool will run, everything keeps working
fine after the tool finishes.
