Rather than finding out what the existing password is, you can simply disable the use of the password, then reset it to whatever you like. If you're running CF 5 or earlier, edit the registry, and set this value to "0": HKLM\SOFTWARE\Allaire\ColdFusion\CurrentVersion\Server\UseAdminPassword If you're running on Linux/Solaris/HPUX, you'll need to stop the server before making the edit, then restart it after you've edited the registry. On Unices, there's no actual registry, so this info is stored in the file cf.registry (typically /opt/coldfusion/registry/cf.registry). If you're running CFMX, you'll want to stop the service, edit neo-security.xml, find "<var name='admin.security.enabled'><boolean value='true'/></var>" and set the value to false, then restart the service.
