The easiest method would be to use Ophcrack on this as it works with Mac and Linux in addition to Windows. However, there are other methods that can be used, as demonstrated below.
If Mac runs OS X 10.4
- Then you only need the installation CD. Insert it into the computer and reboot.
- When it starts up, select UTILITIES –> RESET PASSWORD.
- Choose a new password and then use that to log in.
If Mac runs OS X 10.5
- Restart the computer and press COMMAND + S. When at the prompt, type :
fsck -fyThat’s it. Now that the password is reset, you can login.
mount -uw /
launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.DirectoryServices.plist
dscl . -passwd /Users/UserName newpassword
