Forgot your Passphare?

Go to Start > All Programs > Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Products > SharePoint 2010 Management Shell and right click to run as administrator

Input

$passphrase = ConvertTo-SecureString -asPlainText –Force

You will be prompted to input a new passphrase in plain text.

Set-SPPassPhrase -PassPhrase $passphrase –Confirm

10 – Finally choose PORT for the Central Administration Application and authentication provider, if you have a small farm leave NTLM

NTLM

NT LAN Manager (NTLM) is the default protocol type when Integrated Windows authentication is selected. This protocol takes advantage of a three-part challenge-response sequence to authenticate clients. For more information about NTLM, see Microsoft NTLM(http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=196643).

Kerberos protocol

The Kerberos protocol is a more secure protocol that supports ticketing authentication. A Kerberos authentication server grants a ticket in response to a client computer authentication request, if the request contains valid user credentials and a valid Service Principal Name (SPN). The client computer then uses the ticket to access network resources. To enable Kerberos authentication, the client and server computers must have a trusted connection to the domain Key Distribution Center (KDC). The KDC distributes shared secret keys to enable encryption. The client and server computers must also be able to access Active Directory services. For Active Directory, the forest root domain is the center of Kerberos authentication referrals. For more information about the Kerberos protocol, see How the Kerberos Version 5 Authentication Protocol Works (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=196644) and Microsoft Kerberos.
