I used my F-12 computer to configure a new wireless router
yesterday. I disconnected the computer from the LAN and connected
directly to an Ethernet port on the router so there was no external
access to the system, only me and the router!
Upon boot this morning it would not recognize my password? Not as
user "bobg" or root!
I can't imagine what caused this problem. The only thing I messed
with was the Netgear router [WNDR3300-100NAR] via it's web
URL/interface from Firefox? Presently the new router is turned off
and disconnected, I am using the "old" one, not that I would expect
that to be a factor but this is strange stuff ...
I fixed the root password in "single user" mode and can now boot it
as root but my notes do not tell me how to restore bobg's password.
I don't want to add a new user and have to reconfigure everything!
Suggestions appreciated.
Bob
