    What's the reason of loosing a password? Maybe you can resolve the
problem by administrative means. Once I lost the superviso's password as a
result of the foolish experiment with Accounts. To prevent this in future, I
created the user with superviso's rights for myself and now use it. The
superviso's password is now not in use and is known to me only.
    It's too bad, but I also don't know the method except of the reinstalling

You can ... at least in NW 3.x, at the server console, type in a command wich
for the life of me I can't remember... it allows you to change the password
to any vailid account. ... Or you could create another user with the user ID
of null (ALT-255) and give it sup. equivilent access.  When somthing happens
to the Sup. pw login under this account and change the Sup password under
syscon or whatever.  If this works or not under 4 I don't know.
BTW: isn't it becoming a pain having users recreate their Passwords yet?
