 Hi all out there
 
 A strange one
 
 One of my staff has come to me with his macbook and a problem
 
 He has either forgotten his password or someone has changed it (forgotten 
 more likely!!)
 
 Consequently  he cannot update siftware etc.
 
 any body know of how to either reset the password without the original or 
 discover the password?
 
 Thanks
