First of all, I must emphasize that is impossible to recover the lost password, what can be done is just change it, typing another one.
Brazilfw in a floppy:
If the Brazilfw is in a floppy its quite easy, take the floppy to another machine and edit the file a:\config\coyote.cfg
Locate this line:
- Código: Selecionar todos
ADMIN_AUTH='xxxx'
Where the xxxx is your encrypted password.
Exchange the line for this one:
- Código: Selecionar todos
ADMIN_AUTH='STNRMXTpRdl4sseKKLMyG/'
Now your password is: brazilfw
Its very important that you change it just after the first boot.
Brazilfw in a HD
You will need a boot disk of DOS with a text editor included. One disk that may be used is the boot/recover disk of Windows 98.
Boot the machine with this disk and type:
- Código: Selecionar todos
C:
CD \CONFIG
EDIT COYOTE.CFG
Locate this line:
- Código: Selecionar todos
ADMIN_AUTH='xxxx'
Where the xxxx is your encrypted password.
Exchange the line for this one:
- Código: Selecionar todos
ADMIN_AUTH='STNRMXTpRdl4sseKKLMyG/'
Now your password is: brazilfw
Its very important that you change it just after the first boot.
