Hello there, First of all, you might have a better response if you post to the main PostgreSQL mailing list - this one is for PgAdmin, the administration tool. Secondly, PostgreSQL 8.1 has been end-of-life for many years; you really should consider upgrading if you can. The current version is 9.4, so there have been eight major versions and dozens of bug-fix versions since then. Having said all that, if you have access to the server, you can simply reset the password for the user: ALTER ROLE username SET PASSWORD TO 'new password'; I hope this helps.
