Hi mate,
Thanks for the reply
All I was told was to telnet to the server and it automatically logs you in as Guest. Then from there I have to change to my username (which is hellz.) but I just can't seem to do it.
I'm positive there's no password on the account because in the /etc/passwd file there is no *.
Again, thanks for the reply.

sftp > chmod 777 /usr/local/apache/docs/test.txt

partimaged-passwd(8) Partition Image Server Configuration partimaged-passwd(8) NAME
partimaged-passwd - Manage partimaged user accounts SYNTAX
partimaged-passwd [-Dhl] username password partimaged-passwd [-Dhl] username DESCRIPTION
partimaged can either authenticate against local user accounts (This needs access to /etc/shadow. As this is a potential security risk this method is not recommended) or its own password database in /etc/partimaged/passwd.db. To simplify the management of the partimaged user database this tool was written. It allows to easily add and remove users or list the users in the database. All users in this database are allowed to access the partimaged server. OPTIONS
-D username Delete the specified user from the password file. -l List users in password file and exit. -h Output help information and exit. FILES
