I forgot my Aide Password, what can I do?

So you've lost control over your Citadel Installation by revoking your own Aide-Priviliges, forgetting your aide users password or some other reason. The way out of this situation is to rerun

/usr/local/citadel/setup

or in debs / :

/usr/lib/citadel-server/setup

and enter a new / existing user you know the password to. The next time this user logs in, he will be granted aide privileges.

Note that in case of running in Host Auth / LDAP mode you need to specify the display name as the username to become Aide.
