Resetting the Root Password
Sometimes something goes wrong with ldap auth and logging in as a pam user becomes necessary.
- Reboot the hypervisor, cleanly if possible. ctrl+alt+del works.
- while the machine is booting, watch from grub.
- when grub comes up press 'e'
- find the line that starts
linux ....
and at the end of it append
init=/bin/bash
- press F10 to boot
- When you get dumped to a prompt run
mount -o remount,rw /
- run
passwd
to reset the root password - reboot
