  <title>I forgot my password!</title>
  <p>
     It is important to choose not only <link xref="user-goodpassword">a good
 and secure password</link>, but also one that you can remember. If you have
 forgotten the password to log in to your computer account, you can follow the
 following steps to reset it.
  </p>
  <note style="important">
  <p>
     If you have an encrypted home directory, you will not be able to reset a
 forgotten password.
  </p>
  </note>
  <p>
  If you simply want to change your password, see <link xref="user-changepassword"/>.

           <p>
           Restart your computer, and hold down <key>Shift</key> during bootup
 to get into the Grub menu.
           </p>
           <note style="tip">
           <p>
           If you have a dual-boot machine and you choose at boot time which
 operating system to boot into, the Grub menu should appear without the need to
 hold down <key>Shift</key>.
           </p>
           </note>
           <note>
           <p>If you are unable to get into the Grub boot menu, and therefore cannot choose to boot into recovery mode, you can <link xref="user-forgottenpassword#live-cd">use a live CD to reset your user password</link>.

          </item>
          <item>
           <p>
           Press the down arrow on your keyboard to highlight the line that ends with the words 'recovery mode',
then press <key>Enter</key>.

          </item>
          <item>

           Your computer will now begin the boot process. After a few moments, a <gui>Recovery Menu</gui> will appear.
           Use your down arrow key to highlight <gui>root</gui> and press <key>Enter</key>.

          </item>
          <item>

           At the <cmd>#</cmd> symbol, type:
           </p>
           <p>
           <cmd>passwd <var>username</var></cmd>, where <var>username</var> is the username of the account you're changing the password for.

          </item>
          <item>

           You will be prompted to enter a new UNIX password, and to confirm the new password.

     <p>
       After you successfully log in, you will not be able to access your keyring
 (since you don't remember the old password).  This means that all your saved
 passwords for wireless networks, jabber accounts, etc. will no longer be
 accessible.  You will need to <link xref="#delete-keyring">delete the old
 keyring</link> and start a new one.

           Locate the 'shadow' file and make a backup copy:
           </p>
           <steps>

           <item><p>
           Right-click on the shadow file and select <gui>copy</gui>.
           </p></item>
           <item><p>

          </item>

          <item>
           <p>
           Find your username for which you have forgotten the password.  It
 should look something like this (the characters after the colon will be different):
           </p>
           <p>
           username:$1$2abCd0E or
           </p>
            <p>
           username:$1$2abCd0E:13721a:0:99999:7:::
           </p>
          </item>
          <item>
           <p>
         Delete the characters after the first colon and before the second
 colon. This will remove the password for the account.
           </p>
           <p>
           Save the file, exit out of everything and reboot your computer without
 the live CD or USB.

          <item>
          <p>
            For <gui>Current password</gui> do not enter anything, as your
 current password is blank.  Just click <gui>Authenticate</gui> and enter a new
 password.
          </p>
          </item>

     </steps>
