I decided to install wordpress. It was surprisingly easy once I had checked that my server supported the requirements, (which was the hardest part) and that I could overlay the WordPress database tables into the wiki database. It was a doddle.

Password recovery
This morning one of my colleague’s phoned me telling me that he had forgotten his password. I advised him to download and use the Offline NT Password & Registry Editor I recalled the last time I used it being incredibly non user friendly and also because of the bad NTFS write support. The experience of having to run chkdsk on reboot made me feel very uneasy. When I get time I would like to make a Slax based LiveCD that uses the new NTFS user mode mount tool which has better write support, and perhaps a nice curses based menu system that steps you through the process.
