passwords for your accounts without needing to recreate the

Resetting A User Principal's Password
-------------------------------------
If you've forgotten your user password (it happens!) then from a
shell on one of the KDCs, execute ``sudo kadmin.local`` and use the
``cpw $USERNAME@OPENSTACK.ORG`` command and enter your new password
twice as prompted. If you need to reset your admin principal, use
``cpw $USERNAME/admin@OPENSTACK.ORG`` instead.
