I ashed a question How to make Wordpress independent of hostname recently, and followed the advice by editing the mysql details.
This seemed quite successful and the Wordpress installation seemed to work.
I wanted to run wp-admin but could no longer login with the password.
I note passwords are stored in the database encrypted, so I guess this may involve the hostname.
My question is how can I reset/modify the password?
There is a option to reset password by email, but this could not send an email (email probably never been used)

Changing the hostname does not invalidate existing passwords, only cookies. Something else is wrong. If you missed a spot updating the name it may try to log you in to the old location, which fails, but otherwise I'm not sure what that would be.
