Hi All,

I am using CheckMk RawEdition, but somehow I forgot the password for the admin account “cmkadmin”, and that’s the only admin account unfortunately. Is there any way to recover the password ? Thanks

Hi Ming,

in case you have no access to the cmkadmin password you can reset it from the command line with the cmk-passwd command.

login as root:

omd su <siteuser>
cmk-passwd cmkadmin
