You can restore lost administrator password in one of the following ways:
1.Reset the password on the Dr.Web Security Control Center login page.
2.Set a new password from the command line when launching Dr.Web Server.
3.View or change the password directly in the Dr.Web Server database using the drwidbsh3 utility for embedded database or a third-party SQL client -- assuming that you first disable the administrator password encryption with cryptographic salt (not recommended). See details about the utility and an example of its use in the Appendices document, Appendix H7.2. Administrating Utility of the Embedded Database.

1.Open the login page (http://<Dr.Web_Server_address>:9080 or https://<Dr.Web_Server_address>:9081).
2.Click Reset password.
3.In the opened window, fill in the Login and Email address fields using credentials of the administrator whose password you would like to restore.
|
The email address you enter must match the address specified in the administrator account preferences. |

The email will be sent only if you configured the SMTP server beforehand (see Email for details). |
