"The Absent Minded Professor" here.  I was concentrating on getting this up after having so many challenges with 8 different FTP packages and Omar's amazing help and dedication.  (excuses, excuses) So, I made the subdomains, created the database, created and ftp user, kept all the passwords (but not the admin password, but I tried to keep them similar), and they don't work.  I don't know what I did, but I can't get into admin with the passwords I wrote down.  

So, where is it and how do I reset it when I can't find the old one?

Currently you can reset password by reinstall only. Using same database info and reinstall will usually keep all the store and products intact but will reset the admin password. We will make a special file that you can use to reset password on emergency ocassions.

This is the reason for me using Roboform. This is a password manager that keeps all your passwords, login urls, it is a password generator, using encryption and prevents phishing etc. I really can't do without it anymore. You can download for free here

Or if you want to know more about this: http://www.readhereabout.com/Roboform

You can always find your password by using phpmyadmin - open you database in phpmyadmin and browse the admin table.
