  - Download mongodb for your platform from http://www.mongodb.org/downloads
  - Execute **<nowiki>bin/mongo --port 27117</nowiki>** from your controller
  - Type **'use ace'**
  - Type **'db.admin.find()'**

----

Try:

<code>
mongo --port 27117 ace --eval 'db.admin.update( { "name" : "<UserName>" }, { $set : { "x_shadow" : "$6$ybLXKYjTNj9vv$dgGRjoXYFkw33OFZtBsp1flbCpoFQR7ac8O0FrZixHG.sw2AQmA5PuUbQC/e5.Zu.f7pGuF7qBKAfT/JRZFk8/" } } )'
</code>

or

<code>
db.admin.update( { "name" : "<UserName>" }, { $set : { "x_shadow" : "$6$ybLXKYjTNj9vv$dgGRjoXYFkw33OFZtBsp1flbCpoFQR7ac8O0FrZixHG.sw2AQmA5PuUbQC/e5.Zu.f7pGuF7qBKAfT/JRZFk8/" } } )
</code>

<WRAP info>
**NOTE:**  Replace <UserName> with the admin account.
</WRAP>

You can now login with your admin account and password **password**.

<WRAP info>
**NOTE:**  That hash could have been generated with the command:

<code bash>
# mkpasswd -m sha-512 password -s "ybLXKYjTNj9vv"
</code>

returns:

<code>
$6$ybLXKYjTNj9vv$dgGRjoXYFkw33OFZtBsp1flbCpoFQR7ac8O0FrZixHG.sw2AQmA5PuUbQC/e5.Zu.f7pGuF7qBKAfT/JRZFk8/
</code>

</WRAP>

----

To make the password 'password' use hash 

<code>
$6$9Ter1EZ9$lSt6/tkoPguHqsDK0mXmUsZ1WE2qCM4m9AQ.x9/eVNJxws.hAxt2Pe8oA9TFB7LPBgzaHBcAfKFoLpRQlpBiX1
</code>

Use the hash above for 'password' as your password, then just use the Unifi admin UI to generate a new one.

<WRAP info>
**NOTE:** Uses the salt... (9Ter1EZ9$1St6)
</WRAP>
