Resetting the built-in admin password
The built-in admin account has its password stored in the web.config file. In order to protect the admin password, you should hash it using the SHA-1 algorithm.
You can pre-hash a password using the N2 Setup utility or by downloading the standalone tool N2Hasher.exe. Note: For security purposes, the N2Hasher.exe tool is digitally signed by Benjamin Herila. Please verify the signature before entering sensitive details into the program! The source code is available for your inspection in the N2 source repository and you can compile it yourself if you wish.
