Charles, Don't do this until someone else confirms that it _might_ work as it may kick you out of you SSH session. Can't you reset the admin password on the Raq via the front panel of the machine, the root password is the same as the admin one, so shouldn't it be regenerated back to username admin / password admin via doing it that way? Only thing I could think of. Phil _______________________________________________ Cobaltfacts site list [email protected] http://list.cobaltfacts.com/mailman/listinfo.cgi/cobaltfacts
