resetting the admin password on continuum
Hi,
I want to reset the admin password on continuum.. I read some answers on this forum - I should connect to derby and change the password in the database.
So.. I connected to derby with the ij tool, discovered the table where the user/password is kept (sa.jdouser). However, the password in encoded.. How can I generate the same encoding from my password ? What kind of encoding did you use ?
I'm trying to use Hashcalc for it, so this information is very important...
Thank you,
Ionut

I removed the entire users database in the end (I was at the beginning of the setup anyway).
I found this page :

How can I do that ?

Do you really need to change the password in the db, or do you need to
unlock the account so you can change it normally (using the web
interface)?

I don't know offhand, but the answer will be in Codehaus Redback:
