Forgotten Admin Password

[dummyapple]

Hi,

please help.

I have a server in France which is running ubuntu desktop latest version.

I set up two account, one is admin and the other is a normal user let's call that user'abc'

I changed the admin password. I logged in as admin. I logged out, and now I cannot log back in as admin. I'm so sure I typed in the right password. anyway, I tried all my passwords for admin account and cannot get in!!

I know my password for 'abc' account. Is there any way to get my admin password reset or something?

thanks for your help. ubuntu newb here

all i know how to do is SSH into 'abc' user account...

Have you already tried using the old password?

Yep. In fact I only use 5 passwords for EVERYTHING. And I tried them all....

I hope I haven't been hacked

Hacked, that sounds exactly like what you are trying to do.

all i'm going to say is to try it in multiple keyboard layouts (maybe it was changed when you set it) so that e.g. german keyboard: y is where z is on a US one and such. Just give it a try.

My password is completely made up of numbers. I used the right side of my keyboard to do that, do you think that has something to do with it...

aaaaahhh i need access

That's what securing access with a password is meant to do: keep those without the password out... So no, you won't be able to get in unless you get physical access to the machine.

Btw.: did you forget both you root and your user passwords?

Yea, agreed, this sounds too suspicious.
