You can recover your 'root' password by booting IPCop in 'Single User'
mode. To do this, reboot your IPCop machine. During reboot, while the
GRUB splash screen is displayed, press the 'a' key. A long command
line will appear with the cursor situated at the end. Press the 'Space
Bar' and type the word:

single

Then press the 'Enter' key. IPCop will boot and you will be placed at
the command prompt, logged in as the 'root' user. Type:

passwd

You will be prompted to enter the 'root' password, twice. Next, reboot
your machine by entering:

/usr/local/bin/ipcoprebirth

DONE! :)
