You could also do this at DB level by resetting the password in the view user_x and the cache table user_cache.
update user_x set password = null where login_name = 'Demo'; update user_cache set password = null where username = 'Demo'; commit; user_x is a view of the User table as you see in your User tool, and user_cache is the user cache table, where the system actually reads the password from while authenticating. Having reset the password value in both these tables, you would be good to go.. Make sure that you do not have multiple entries for Demo in the user_cache table.. It had happened on one of my customers system, we have no idea what caused that.. that did give us authentication problems too - only that it would authenticate Demo with either of the two passwords on both those records.. If you see multiple records in the user_cache table for the username Demo, delete all except one of those records.. Be cautious of not deleting records belonging to other users or you will cause other problems..

Reset. ** There use to be a startup string that would reset the Demo account. That is something toggle you could put at that start of the arserver. Its been a long time and in my old age I have forgotten it. Maybe some one has that string.
