I've done it now!!  I've forgotten a host password for one of my portals.  I need BIG help here!!  How do I retrieve the password.  A password reminder only sends a bunch of asterisks...that is not too helpful.  Can anyone help me on this???

Feeling really stupid right now,
Ling

Ling,

the password of superusers are never sent out in plain text. If you lost the password of the host, you need database access. first create a new user (and remember the password), second go into table asp_membership and copy password and password_salt from the new user into the superuser's row.

Hi

I am having some trouble with resetting passworrds for the host and admin logins.   I have forgotten them both and i removed the option for registering a new user.  I have the database access and changed the data in  the aspnet_Membership table.


I did everything as described on the follwing blog but nothing is working.  I have forgotten the passwords because of other projects and never wrote them down safe.

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.
