How to change or delete Admin password
By default, DBMAN sets up Administrator's login and password as "admin" and "admin". How could I delete or change this? Please help.
I checked on default.pass and could not find the entry for Admin. [administer] Where should I go to either delete or change this admin login and password.
Thank you very much.

This should be in default.pass by default, surprisingly:

admin:A.f0Kvdiyy8q2:1:1:1:1:1
author:zs047RckAhJH6:1:1:1:1:0
guest:ZX9XTlIfPvdGE:1:0:0:0:0

=> admin is what you need to change.

You can change it from the admin area.

1) Create a new account with admin permissions.
2) Delete the default admin account.

Good luck!

Actually, it is easier to do my method...It is difficult to simply edit the ADMIN account within the default.pass file since the password is encrypted.

I was pointing out what the default file should look like but mentioned that it should be changed from within the admin area. Sorry if it wasn't clear.
