[p4] How to reset superuser's password?

[Jeff Grills]

Have you checked the P4 administrator's guide?

One thing I've done in the past is to start up a new unlicensed 2 user
server, and set a password for a user.  Then I do a checkpoint.  I take my
normal server down, check point it, find the user record for the super user,
replace the password with the known one from the user in the unlicensed
server, and recover that one record into the normal server.  This technique
is not for everyone to use, as it's certainly error prone and importing a
bad record into your DB may cause all kinds of craziness, but it works with
minimal impact on the rest of your server.

Hi, All,
             I change server security levels by issue this command: p4
counter -f security 1. Then I reset the superuser's password.

             But when I log in using new password I've set, perforce server
show the error: Password invalid.

             How to resolve this problem?
Rgds,
Viery
