Options 2:
You can logon as DDIC and change the SAP* password
 

Options 3:

You can also delete SAP* user in client 000. It will default its password to PASS.

In SQL

SELECT * FROM USR02 WHERE BNAME='SAP*' AND MANDT='000'

Run query to check return. Change Select to Delete and run again.

Aren't you supposed to use DDIC to install hotpacks?

However, some prefer to use other users besides ddic.
