Hi,
I forgot the admin password for peer on an eCS 2.1 machine. Users are
stored in
\ibmlan\accounts\net.acc .
Is there any way to gain access again, e.g. replace that net.acc with
one from somewhere else (install CD maybe?). Or is there a way to reset
the password? Both of course while booting from another partition/disk.

the German version BENUTZER / PASSWORT does work too.

Hi mat,
If you start your ecs in console mode (hit Alt-F1 during start)
you can delete net.acc.
I have filecomander FC2 in a well known path and use it if console login :>needed.

You find the net.acc at:
$:\IBMLAN\ACOUNTS\NET.ACC this is the running version :>$:\IBMLAN\INSTALL\NETACC
I believe you can copy from INSTALL to ACOUNTS but please make a backup
of them. If you start with deletet net.acc OS/2 may copy net.acc by :>himselve.
/-------------------------------------------------------
From my history
1. Reboot and when the "OS/2" message appears, press Alt-F1.
2. Drop to the command prompt (use original CONFIG.SYS).
3. Replace C:\IBMLAN\ACCOUNTS\NET.ACC with C:\IBMLAN\INSTALL\NET.ACC.
4. Reboot.
5. After Peer has been started, log on using USERID/PASSWORD and you'll :>have access to Peer again as administrator.
