If you boot into recovery mode you should automatically be logged in as root, so you just have to set a new password for your user with
Code:
passwd USERNAME
If that doesn't work please provide the exact error-message(s) you get.
Yes TobiSGD, its automatically direct me to root, but when i typed passws administrator, its give me this error below,
"Authentication token manipulation error"
password unchanged,
is it possible for previous administrator block this access or he protect & forbidden any user to change administrator password? because this server is handled by another administrator before
