This will reset your admin's password to the default one. If there are any other users in the old <CODE>passwd</CODE> file, copy them after the restart into the new <CODE>$SPLUNK_HOME/etc/passwd</CODE>file and restart splunk again.</P> <P>hope this helps ...</P> <P>cheers, MuS</P> Mon, 24 Feb 2014 07:59:34 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Security/Problem-in-signing-into-splunk/m-p/162894#M14690 MuS 2014-02-24T07:59:34Z
