When booting, at the menu press a for append, then add " 1" to the end of the kernel line. It will now boot to single user mode. Once at the prompt simply use "passwd root" to set the root password. To identify other users do "cat /etc/passwd" and look at the tail end of the passwd file to see what user names are used. Normal users will have the second field a number of 500 or higher. Once you have identified the user names, then "passwd user" will allow you to change their password as well. Finally, reboot normally and log in as the regular user. > Regards > > Fly_Over > -- > ___________________________________________________________ > Sign-up for Ads Free at Mail.com > http://promo.mail.com/adsfreejump.htm > >
