Somehow our admin password got changed.

When we do a password reset via the login form we get another users password
and not the admin.

From what I understand I should seek......( mos_users table) in phpmyadmin
but I am unable to locate it.

We would like to reset the admin password via phpmyadmin or any other method.

Any help would be appreciated.

You shouldn't edit the Database manually.

Use the Lost Password form and it will email you a link to reset your password. It will NOT send you a password so I'm not sure what you are talking about when you say "we get another users password". Disable all your modifications and try testing again.

If u can not get the password reset function to work. Upload your tools.php file and use that to reset the admin password.

Also I recomend u check your mods and server for security issues. Also make sure u admin account is the config.php file to prevent people from changing it.
