 |

Recently I've been running my own zone (for bot dev). Now my hard drive crashed ; I was able to save my server files, but now my saved pass in my client is gone. (just my user pass, I know the sysop pass) I need to either delete my user or reset my pass. Any ideas of what I can do?
I'd prefer not to have to delete all users (cause reregistering all my bot names is a pain) |

If its your zone, why dont you just make another name for it? If you lost your password for SSC zones also, use ?lostpassword and the pass will get emailed to you. |

I remember seeing a program once that would get the passwords out of the server files. If I remember right, which is kind of unlikely, it was made by CatID to show the vulnerability of the encryption methods. But, it only worked on passwords with an even number of characters. Since I saw this years ago, it probably doesn't even work anymore.
I don't remember there being a way to delete just your name out of a user list for a server, so if it was the same password you used on SSC, then Chambahs's suggestion for ?lostpassword was a good one. Past that, if you still don't want to start over on your user list, you could always add yourself as sysop on a different name, and use that. |

Yeah, it's not the same as on SSC servers. And, I really want my name in my own zone that's the whole point. I can make a new name and log in as sysop, sure, but a name is a name. So nobody knows how to remove a user from the biller so it can be added again? I'm using SSB2 (catid's) |

Log in as a billing operator and type ?man and that will list all commands. There should be one to change a user's password. Else, just go into the billing directory and remove the database files for names/scores. This will reset every name though, so its a last resort method as users will need to recreate their names. |

I hadn't ever logged into my biller before. All is well now.  |
