I'm filesharing from my iMac (os9.1) to my eMac (os9.2) via a new airport basestation. I've lost my administrator password. To get around this I specify my shared folders as read/write for guest access.

I would like to change the lost password. I've tried deleting the network preference file, to no avail. How can I find or reset this forgotten password?

*Bump*

No ideas? Really?

I'll admit to being a little disappointed. This is the third such network-related query I've posted that has sunk, unheeded, like the proverbial stone. Are there really no macnners with networking experience?!

Reiterating my call for advice ...
