This is was in the config file I lost the admin name and password?
How do I do?

$pollvars['poll_username'] = "admin";
$pollvars['poll_password'] = "7fca6a528d4978eb1a0cd454ec520efa";

Sincerely
Conny

I went to the main c-f-h site and they directed me here. I couldn't find anything close to my problem except this post.

I instaled the 3.2.1 advance guestbook on my site. The install told me the default set admin login and password were 'test' and '123'. This is not true. I've not once been able to access the admin functions for my guestbook. I've tried re-installing several times and still the default user name/password aren't working. I need help here. If I can't access the admin functions, the whole thing itself becomes useless. WTF does tell me what the defaults are if the defaults won't open the admin functions!

Any help would be appriciated.

polls admin?
how would I check for that?
is it likely to be the same password as admin?

I haven't forgotten my user/pass, it has been changed by a malicious 3rd party

So the username and password to what? the admin section of a script? If so which script?

Oh in that case use the reset script I posted a link to above. If you are using advanced guestbook 2.2 you will also need to patch the login exploit.

i'm using 2.3.1 so that means I don't need to patch it right?
I'll just do the reset?
thanks
