Do you have the Administrator password for your laptop? Or do you have an administrator who does?
If so, you can just log in as Administrator (or anyone else with Administrative privileges on your laptop), and run User Manager to forcibly change the password to something else. After you log in, you can change it using either XP or Cygwin. If you directly change the XP password, you'll want to regenerate your /etc/passwd. -- Shankar. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
