Hi Walter,

as you noticed, gf_gfuser contains info for the users that can login into 
GeoFence, while gf_gsuser contains info about GeoServer users.

There are no facilities on the UI to update the geofence admin pw. 
The pw is stored as a MD5 hash in the DB. 
In order to change the pw on the DB, you have to create the MD5 of your 
choosen pw: i.e

   echo -n YOUR_PASSWORD | md5sum

and then set it into the DB.

   Cheers,
   Emanuele
