hi, as the new chapter of the adventures of cahaz with linux, the troubling and mysterious: My password suddently changed! Cahaz was the only one to know is root password.....one beautiful day, he downloaded a rpm and tried to install it. To complete the installation, he needed to enter is password, wich was so simple he couldn't forgot it...and he used it a couple of hours earlier. Mysteriously, is password wouldn't work. he checked the capitals and all, but everything was fine. he then tried in a console, but it didn't worked either. ''what the hell is going on? '' then asked cahaz to himself. Will cahaz ever find the misterious things happening in is pc? Will someone help him to find is password back? Who the hell changed the password? A hacker? Will the RPM package be ever installed? ....that's what you'll know in the next chapter of the incredibles adventures of cahaz in the misterious and enchanted wolrd of linux. --------------------- The introduction says everything. :smt045
ouch, that sucks, what program did this? anyway googled it, and found a solution (well for mandrake 9.2, will probably work with 10, so long as the install cd has a rescue mode and an editor, they use the editor vi on that page i linked to)
