Recover with Unknown
Password
There are no back-door accounts or passwords in the event that you
forget the web server module’s passwords or inadvertently delete all
the Administrator accounts.
To recover a web server module with unknown passwords, you must
use ControlFlash to restore the web server’s flash file system to the
factory default. This operation deletes all user accounts, data views,
and user-loaded web pages. Contact technical support for the
appropriate recovery script and binary file.
Field
Action
User ID
Enter the user name for the account (80 characters maximum).
Can contain these characters: A-Z, a-z, 0-9, underscore (_), and dash (-).
Group
Select Administrator, Write, or Read access for the user account.
Password
Enter the password for the account (80 characters maximum).
Confirm Password
Re-enter the same password for the account.
IMPORTANT
If you use Internet Explorer, the number of characters allowed for a user ID or
password depends on how many characters “fit in the box.” Larger characters
(such as “W”) take more room and reduce the total number of allowed
characters.
This limitation does not apply if you use Netscape, Mozilla, or some other
browser.
