Hi When I try to login as admin after a few months it asked me to change the password. I did, and when I tried to login it would get back to the login page.
I tried then to get the password sent to me. I got an email to reset the password, and then it didn't ask for a new password and when I tried to login it wouldn't allow me to. I ended up having to delete the user database and register the admin again, it scared me... regards Emerson 2008/11/26 Brett Porter <[email protected]>: > You can use the reset password link to have it emailed to you, if that was > set up correctly.
