Hi,

I am unable to log in to icinga-web and I'm not sure if I've forgotten the
user account's passwords or if the authentication isn't working. I've tailed
and checked the logs and don't see anything fishy. The users are in the
nsm_user table so nothing out of the ordinary there. Is there a way to reset
the root password outside of the app? Sorry if this question is covered
anywhere, but I couldn't find anything in the docs or by googling it.

Thanks,
Khoury

Uh ;-) At the moment the only way is to insert the root passwd and salt
manually into the table. The mysql rescue scheme is a good point to start.

But I think a tool to do that would be nice.

Kind regards,
Marius.
