Admin Password Corrupted?
All of a sudden I am unable to log in under my administrator account. The Password that I set does not work. In addition the pass hash in the database is about half as long as the rest of them.

Is there any way to reset the admin password?
Thanks in advance

Dirty Workaround:
Copy the hashed PW from your Domain User into the admin in the DB.
Login in and set a new pw.

The admin password is created on install and crypted not hashed. That's the reason why it's shorter.
