OpenWrt Lost Password? Reinstall Linksys?

I bought a router on ebay (Linksys Wireless-G 2.4GHz). I went to setup my wifi password etc by going to the ip address on my browser. With these routers, even if you don't know the password, you can reset them to default. However this one doesnt have the normal software on it, instead it has "OpenWrt Admin Console" displayed. I found out that this is some sort of third party software, but I couldn't seem to get anywhere without knowing the password (the ebay seller doesn't have the password either apparently). I held down the reset button on the router itself but it didn't change anything.
Is there a way to reset this router back to the normal Linksys software, or to reset the OpenWrt to where I can access the settings?
The router is unusable to me without the password lol

Did you try the reset button on the router to factory reset and see if the default OpenWRT password will work?
What model router is this?

What to do for lost password; I can't even delete old copy to reinstall new CD?

We setup security while still developing monitoring system. Year-long delay led to lost password. When I log on as administrator (no password) and then go to edit mode, "administrator " disappears from user name box and I am unable to save any changes.
Nate Novosel recently sent me a CD with Lookout 4.5.1, which I've intended to install and add the 4.5.1 fixes to and start the programming over from scratch. However, I cannot remove the old software either.
Ideally you can tell me how to keep my old work and get around the lost password (when complete, I still want it pswd protected). If that's not possible, I'm prepared to start over from scratch but would cringe if I have to reformat wiping out the NT system programming. Please help before much more of my hair turns gray or dislodged from scalp.
p.s.: If you can, please honor our troops on the 4th by flying our flag during the day.

Hello,
There is a way to reset the password, with NI's help. So, you will want to call NI's Support.

If you purchased Aperture from the Mac App Store, just RE-DOWNLOAD it, from the Mac App Store. The re-download should be FREE.

Lost password need clear, step by step instructions

I need clear and exact steps to reset my password. I put in the install disc for mac os that came with the computer. I held down the C button. the choose language page was there, choose English. but all the instructions say that from that point on, after I hit "continue" after choosing the language, there is supposed to be a utilities menu but that is not the page that appears.
what appears is Mac OS installer with the icons for: Time machine, mail, finder, dvd and something that is acquire with four smaller squares inside. Clicking on any of those does not do anything.
the choices on this page are: more information, and continue. MOre information just tells you various websites to go to. Continue takes me to an agreement page and I click Agree to be taken to
"select destination" SO WHERE THE HECK IS THE Utilities menu?
the support and book directions say one thing but they don't happen as they say.
can someone PLEASE tell me how to reset the **** password in clear, step by realistic step process?
Why can't apple or any of the support people not say what happens as it really happens.
you would think it is so simple -2 steps- but that is NOT true.
Please, someone help.
there is nothing to support the book and support forum steps. as I said there is NO OPTION for a menu or to choose Utilities. the only option is
to reinstall the OS system and that is NOT IN THE DIRECTIONS!
Does Apple even care that their instructions don't match the experience?

no. they are not

Multi Language support for lost password management in OAM

We are trying to implement lost password management with multi-language support. We have updated lpm_changepwd.xsl for UI changes. Some of the text on the password change screen come for the lpm_changepwd.xsl. How can we have the text on the password change screen in multiple language?
Thanks.
Vinay

Was able to do it by adding new files to the shared folder and updating the style in the lang folder to point to the new files.

Confusing lost password form behaviour

I have a client ecommerce site using the following features of business catalyst:
a secure zone for customers, and associated registration/login/lost password forms
a newsletter sign up / (email marketing list subscription form)
The issue is if a visitor to the website registers their email with a marketing list via the newsletter form, they can then use the 'lost password' feature to trigger a password reset email... which serves no purpose as they are not subscribed to any secure zones in the first place and have no username to log in with.
This has confused many customers who have only registered for the newsletter, and come back to the site later thinking they have an account who then use the password retrieval form.
Is this something I can work around? It just seems like a bug with BC - it really shouldn't be emailing a password reset when there isn't a username.
Extra information: Just for completeness sake I went through the process of:
registering for a list
requesting a password reset
resetting (setting?) the password - resulting in confusion: I can't login, then
attempting to register an account (which will subscribe me to a secure zone) with that email.
I was able to create an account but received the message: Your record has an existing password. This will be emailed to you. [******] - has been ignored. Obviously the password is not emailed to me, it emails another password reset link.

Yes. Ok, let's go through a story in full detail, with URLs
Customer signs up to newsletter on (only one form on this page) http://www.smittenmerino.com/vip
Customer comes back at a later date, maybe thinking they already have an account, maybe thinking when they signed up to the newsletter that it was an account.
Customer goes to login page/page requiring login http://www.smittenmerino.com/account/ and thinks 'oh gosh. what's my password' and clicks the 'forgot password link'
Customer arrives at the lost password form (only one form on this page) http://www.smittenmerino.com/account/lost and submit their email address successfully
Customer receives the password retrieval email, (note: the username tag for this email will be sent to them as blank), and depending on their determination, they might click the password reset link and add to their confusion and frustration.
Step 4. should not be possible, they should receive the error message that there isn't an account with that username/email address.

Lost password to old iphoto library

What can I do if I lost the password for an old Iphoto library?
My new computer wants to upgrade it before it will open.

What can I do if I lost the password for an old Iphoto library?
There are no passwords for iPhoto libraries? What are you needing? If you have the iPhoto library on an encrypted disk image then you are in trouble and that has nothing to do with iPhoto - you need system level support for encrypted disk images
My new computer wants to upgrade it before it will open.
The library? See above - the Application? Then you need password help for your Apple ID - again that has nothing to do with iPhoto - you click on the lost password link

Sun McData Intrepid 6064 64-Port Director Switch - Lost Passwords

I inherited a Sun McData Intrepid 6064 64-Port Director Switch. It's previous netadmin is no longer available. All I can access so far is the serial port as it's default password is intact. I can't access telnet or the web interfaces due to the lost passwords. I've tried all sorts of things from different info in the web, being careful not to erase the config and licenses, but no luck so far. Has anybody had success resetting the telnet/web interface passwords on this switch, or any other McData switch? Thank you!

Lost passwords on iPhone app

I backed up all my devices, updated everything, bought the new 4S, got everything switched over from the 4 phone to the 4S phone. Couldnt find my passwords in my App store app, they were gone. The following day they were back in my app. Today they are gone again! Have I lost them forever? Is there something I can do to recover the lost passwords?

Are you talking about an app in the app store that stores all of your passwords?
This is not affiiliated with iCloud and I'm afraid, unless there is a way that you log into the app you previously had, you cannot get the passwords back.
