Reset Default Lxadmin Password via commandline/backend

Sometimes when you intially setup Lxadmin, you can have problems resetting it from default.  To get around this can you can do the following:

1. Login via SSH to your VPS.

2. Run:

cd /usr/local/lxlabs/lxadmin/httpdocs

3. Then run:

/usr/bin/lphp.exe  ../bin/common/resetpassword.php master <your-new-password>

lxadmin Error: sh: vgdisplay: command not found

Lxadmin Error:

sh: vgdisplay: command not found

If you are receiving this, its probably due to the hostname being set to something which is causing a problem, so do the following to fix:

hostname temp.domain.com
cd /usr/local/lxlabs/lxadmin/httpdocs/
lphp.exe ../bin/update.php
