snap 4100 password

[ju1c3]

hello everyone,


i an new to snap servers and i have been charged with the resurrection of a 4100n. it was set up by a previous network admin at a company i am consulting for. he did not leave a password when he was "let go". i have followed the instructions that i found in the faq's about resetting the admin password by using the reset button and getting the 2 blinks then restarting. however, every time i try and connect by either ip address or by the name itself, it will not allow me access using the default u: admin p: admin. does anyone have any other ideas about why its acting up? i have tried both IE7 and firefox to access it.


formatting the machine is NOT an option.


thanks in advance, and please excuse my lack of capital letters.

Resetting the Snap Server to its factory default settings does not change the existing disk configuration or erase any data stored on your disks. However, clearing all of the system settings will remove the File/Folder Security and Quotas.
To reset the server settings:
1 Turn the Snap Server off (as described on page 7) and wait for all of the lights to turn off.
2 Press and hold down the Reset button. While you are still pressing Reset, turn the Snap Server back on; wait until both the System and Disk lights start flashing in sync. (To press the Reset button, push a pencil point or similar object into the reset button.)
3 Release the Reset button.
4 To select the settings you want to clear and reset, briefly press the Reset button:
Once to clear the server's IP address.
Twice to clear the Administrator password.
Three times to clear the server's network settings.
Four times to clear all system settings.
Five times to set into FLUP Mode (to broadcast upgrades using snapup32.exe)
Six times to boot, but not mount hard disks (not possible on 1x00)
5 Watch the Disk light and verify that the number of times it flashes corresponds to the number of times you pressed the Reset button. For example, if you pressed Reset three times to clear the network settings, the Disk light should flash three times repeatedly to confirm the reset. If the number of flashes exceeds the number you intended, repeat steps 4 and 5 of this procedure.
6 When the light confirms the level of reset you intended, press and hold down the Reset button until both the System and Disk lights turn off, and then release the Reset button. The server then restarts, and resets the settings you cleared to the factory defaults.
