[mapguide-users] Recover the Administration Password

[Zac Spitzer]

i think you can just rename the site directory under the repository directory
while the mapguide service is shutdown.

If it doesn't get recreated, just copy another site directory from another
mapguide instance

this is assuming you have very basic security setup
