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.

Ray.
