Hi,
Is it possible to change the 'admin' password without knowing the =
original password? The only other login in UserList does not have =
privileges to change the admin password. Problem is, the person who set =
up our AFS servers has since left the company, taking the admin password =
with him. I tried to change it using steps provided at =
http://www.transarc.ibm.com/Support/afs/admin/cellname.html, with no =
luck. This server is running the Transarc version. I was able to change =
the admin password using the OpenAFS version in a test environment....
Thanks
Mike
