'Past Patch' was smart and made a complete backup of my original 40Gig (WOW the space on that thing) HD that ran the original LOTW back in the day.
So, I broke out DOSBOX and started that process to run the old BBS once again and take a stroll through the past and better days when I was a lot younger.
When I went to run wwiv /m for no modem detection, the message that I received is that I needed to run INIT to convert the user list firt. Problem is, I can't remember the password that I created for the system.
Is there a way to recover that at all, given that the database wasn't encrypted back then? I want to make my current version look nearly the same as it was back then. Any help is appreciated.
