[SOLVED] Stupid User has locked me out of my own CACTI!

[Primüs]

Hello,

I have a cacti installation on a linux based server. I have my admin account which never used, my account with admin priv's then user accounts. Now one of the user accounts happened to know my admin pass and has gone in and deleted all accounts apart from admin, and changed the password to something i do not know.

I have been into the SQL to have a look to see if i can recreate myself a user the manual way, however the password field uses an encryption of somesort which i do not know and cant find where to find out. All i want is the 'encryption' key to make the password just password so i can update the SQL entry and re-gain access to my install.

Thanks,

Primus

i have fixed my own problem,

I realised its using the MD5 sum, and used a SQL query like the following:

UPDATE user_auth SET password=MD5("<password here>") WHERE id=1 (for the admin account :p)

So anyone who trusts users like me and gets stooged, thats how to fix

Stop trusting your users with Admin rights...

I hope that user is now fired.
