Forgot your EM Password?

Starting with 0.0.11, your EM password is now MD5 encrypted and therefore cannot as easily be modified in the database. But the real problem is that since the EM password is now used as the key to encrypt the FTP password, we must reencrypt the FTP password any time the EM password changes. Fortunately I included a little proggie to solve this Wink Here's what to do:

1. Copy the admin/mods/easymod/includes/empw.php.txt file to your admin directory.

2. drop the .txt on the end of it so the filename is simply empw.php

3. Open this file from your browser and set your password. You will need to enter your FTP password if you use FTP with EM.

4. After updating, it is very important to delete empw.php, or rename it so it no longer ends in .php. Otherwise someone else could run the program and mess with your settings.

I am using EasyMod beta1 (0.2.1a).

The file described above is not present in the admin/mods/easymod directory, or any other. EasyMod is installed and running, but I no longer remember the password. Could someone please post a copy of the empw.php.txt file?

Yes, the file is non-existant in EM 0.3. What do I do?
