hi,<br>
<br>
of course you have problems since all the commands <br>
suggested require that you log in first ( but you can't ! ).<br>
<br>
the only way is to boot on a minimal linux on floppy<br>
( for instance : <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://boot.everywhere.dk/">http://boot.everywhere.dk/</a> ),<br>
mount the root partition and modify the<br>
/etc/passwd file.<br>
<br>
suerte,<br>

<pre wrap="">I guess you could login as an ordinary user and then use su - this is<br>probably the easy and best way, <br></pre>
