    you forgot to put your profile. # config system admin edit " admin" set accprofile " super_admin" set password xxxx # end The best way is create a new user with super_admin, log with then and delete your old " admin" . Because to set the admin password you will need to set the old pass. regards, Paulo Raponi

    no, you don' t need to know your old password to set a new one. Happened to me once. Get the config file, write the new password in cleartext into the ' set password' line, without the ENC keyword, reload the config file. That' s it.

    Oh yes, I said about old passowd thinking in GUI change. Not on config reload... Thats easy... But i think that the error are because they not set " accprofile" on admin.
