Reset Password
So my dad bought an iMac from my mom, but she does not know the admin password anymore. I read on the apple forums that I should look here for help on resetting the password. The iMac runs OSX 10.6.3. I would really appreciate any help. Thanks

Hi,
I reset my password couple of times. On both the occasions, I get the message that the password is reset and it would be mailed to you. But I have never received the mail. Could you please let me know my password so that I can login.
My user id is ranj@tcs.
Thanks,

ktutil
KTUTIL(8) BSD System Manager's Manual KTUTIL(8)
NAME
ktutil -- manage Kerberos keytabs
SYNOPSIS
ktutil [-k keytab | --keytab=keytab] [-v | --verbose] [--version] [-h | --help] command [args]
DESCRIPTION
ktutil is a program for managing keytabs. Supported options:
-v, --verbose
Verbose output.
command can be one of the following:
add [-p principal] [--principal=principal] [-V kvno] [--kvno=kvno] [-e enctype] [--enctype=enctype] [-w password] [--pw-file=filename]
[--password=password] [-r] [--random] [-s] [--no-salt] [-H] [--hex]
Adds a key to the keytab. Options that are not specified will be prompted for. This requires that you know the password or the
hex key of the principal to add; if what you really want is to add a new principal to the keytab, you should consider the get
command, which talks to the kadmin server. --pw-file can specify either a file with a password, or the string STDIN. In the
latter case the password is read from stdin.
change [-r realm] [--realm=realm] [--a host] [--admin-server=host] [--s port] [--server-port=port]
Update one or several keys to new versions. By default, use the admin server for the realm of a keytab entry. Otherwise it will
use the values specified by the options.
If no principals are given, all the ones in the keytab are updated.
copy [--filter-principal=string]
Ar keytab-src Ar keytab-dest Copies all the entries from keytab-src to keytab-dest. Optionally a princial can be selected as a
filter and then just entries matching that principal is copied out. The matching applies globing rules on each component (eg
foo*/host.domain@REALM) is a valid filter principal.
get [-p admin principal] [--principal=admin principal] [-e enctype] [--enctypes=enctype] [-r realm] [--realm=realm] [-a admin server]
[--admin-server=admin server] [-s server port] [--server-port=server port] principal ...
For each principal, generate a new key for it (creating it if it doesn't already exist), and put that key in the keytab.
If no realm is specified, the realm to operate on is taken from the first principal.
list [--keys] [--timestamp]
List the keys stored in the keytab.
remove [-p principal] [--principal=principal] [-V -kvno] [--kvno=kvno] [-e -enctype] [--enctype=enctype]
Removes the specified key or keys. Not specifying a kvno removes keys with any version number. Not specifying an enctype removes
keys of any type.
rename from-principal to-principal
Renames all entries in the keytab that match the from-principal to to-principal.
purge [--age=age]
Removes all old versions of a key for which there is a newer version that is at least age (default one week) old.
