Hi,
I am having a Stand alone Windows 2000 advanced server
with only one user i.e. Administrator. This user has been
locked out due number of failed attempts and the server is
currently locked. I want to reset the password or want a
solution so that i can access my server.

Kindly advice..

Hi Arun,

Unfortunately, there's no way to change an Administrator's password if it's
lost or forgotten. See the article below.
