Hi Dave, While we should probably provide an easier way to do this, the following should work.
$ rb-site manage /path/to/site shell >>> from django.contrib.auth.models import User >>> u = User.objects.get(username="admin") >>> u.set_password("the new password") >>> u.save() Replace the admin username above if it's different. I'm typing this on my iPhone, so if I typoed, let me know :P Christian On Wednesday, September 8, 2010, Dave Brookshire <brooksh...@gmail.com> wrote: > I've inherited a review board server setup by someone who has left. > Things have been swimming along quite well until recently, when LDAP > authentications began to fail.
