And you can't get in? Go to your personal account, open a VNC session, get to the console, log in as root and change the password for the user. If you forgot the root password, there is a "change root password" button in your personal account.

You can change the password via VNC or via RescueCD. Usually VNC is available in the server control panel. Details on how to do this are described on our website https://freehost.com.ua/faq/faq/kak-vosstanovit-do...
