Don,
Did that work for you? If not, you may want to know that one way to find the username
of your first account is by:
$ grep :1000: /etc/passwd
You should get back something like:
kadmin:x:1000:1000:kadmin,,,:/home/kadmin:/bin/bash
The first colon-delimited field is your username. You can take the human-processing out
of it by:
$ grep :1000: /etc/passwd | cut -d: -f1
That will give you something like:
kadmin
Then you might use a command like this to reset the password:
$ sudo passwd kadmin
or:
# passwd kadmin

P.S. Your leet-speak-esque posts are uniquely difficult to read and comprehend.
