Locked out of FOG

[jbc]

I tried to update the kernel and after downloading it, I got an error stating it couldn’t connect to the tftp site. I looked for help regarding that & every posting said it was usually a password problem. I reset the passwords for the account and the ftp_tftp setting but that didn’t help. I then reset the password for the fog account in mysql and now I can’t even log in as the fog user through the web interface. I’m totally locked out of FOG. Help!

Thanks,

If you can still log into mysql, you probably need to fix the password record for the fog user. I think it’s a simple update statement:
[CODE]
use fog;
update users set uPass = MD5(“password”) where uName = “fog”;
[/CODE]

then you can login to the webUI again using username = fog and password = password

Thanks! I had done the mysql pwd change, and rebooted the computer, but maybe the password was still cached somewhere. After another reboot I was able to get back in. Everything’s copacetic now.
