Have you tried to make a new user with a level of 10? He might have reset your password. Why was he in the hosts file of your Observium box?

Not sure what direction to go with this. My instance of observium has been working great ever since I deployed it. A peer of mine decided to add hosts to the host file, and in doing so, somehow messed with something that does not allow us to log back in via web/gui. I can ssh to the device and have looked at every possible log in /var/log, but do not see anything that stands out. I also try to investigate the log while I attempt logging in via gui, and nothing is seen. I took a look at the install documentation to see if anything stands out there, that may lead me in the right direction but do not find anything, other than probably reinstalling which I am trying to avoid (i'll have to look at how to preserve current files, etc once reinstalling if i go down that road). Is there anything else that I can possibly look at to get a better direction and try to isolate this? I can't imagine him modifying the /etc/hosts file would affect logging into observium via the front end gui.
Thanks for any help you guys can provide! _______________________________________________ observium mailing list observium@observium.org http://postman.memetic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/observium
