Do you have access the the CLI of this Splunk instance? If so, you can reset the password:

  • Stop splunk service
  • Move the $SPLUNKHOME/etc/passwd file to $SPLUNKHOME/etc/passwd.bak
  • Start Splunk. After the restart you should be able to login using the default login (admin/changeme).

If this is a training provided instance, contact your instructor.
