which displays all tabs. Entering anything else displays the
General
tab only.

The Configuration options window, General tab, showing all tabs (correct password entered).

window. Enter the old password and the new

Resetting the Configuration Password
In the event the password is misplaced, be aware that it is not stored in readable
form. Rather, values derived from the password is stored in the configuration files.
The password can effectively be reset by locating the configuration file and then
either deleting or editing it.

command to note the pathname of the currently
selected configuration file. Exit the server.
