    Forgotten Password

    Hi,


    I don't actually recall changing my boxes default password which I believe is Dreambox, however, for some reason I can't SSH to the box as it says access denied due to password. Is there a way to restore the default or will I have to backup and default?


    Thanks in advance.

    When using an ftp client, the username is >> root & the password is blank (no password as per default)

    You are using sftp. Not sure if that need to be enabled first.
