Hi, I was trying to set a password as OLD_PASSWORD, but somehow did it to root and am now getting this error. I can't do anything at all, root is completly disabled. Is there a way to restore the users? Where are they stored? I don't care if I have to loose all of my users, I can remake them. Thanks.
