NOTE: If you get a "Give root password for system maintenance" message, your system has been secured to require the root password for any level of access. In that case, this procedure isn't going to work and you would need to reimage the system to regain access.

command:
mount -o remount,rw /
* If all is successfull up to this point, you can type the following and change the root password to whatever you like:
passwd
* You can also change the command line admin password here using the following command:
passwd admin
* You can change the web interface admin password here using the following command:
htpasswd -m /var/www/auth/htpasswd admin
* Once the passwords have been changed, reboot the appliance with the
command:
shutdown -r now
* After the system has finished rebooting, you should be able to login with the newly changed password.
