We setup a zoneminder machine almost a year ago or so, and I dont remember the admin pass.

How can I reset it, I have root access to the machine, and the mysql database.

whenever I login as anything it says logged in as "," and i cant view or change any settings.

thanks in advance for your help!

The simplest thing to do is to go into the mysql client and do

Code: Select all

update Users set Password = password( "admin" ) where Username = "admin";
that should reset the password to 'admin' for you.

Version 1.17.0 is pretty old now, I would recomment using a more recent version.
