- Hold Apple+S when booting to enter single user mode
- #sh /etc/rc
- #passwd yourusername
- #reboot
The commands here never asks for the admin password. I guess it's the same with doing this from booting up from the DVD because with that method, you do need to know the password to any admin accounts on the system. In fact, you can use the DVD to reset the admin account's password. So much for security! The best security is physical security and encryption, but those have their negatives.
