    Strange situation, I have a test server and I wanted to set up a VPN so i installed Remote Access using the Add Features and Roles wizard in Server Manager, however after the server reboot it no longers accept the administrator password. I know its the right password because I used that password to log in to install it. Now I can't log into the server and I don't have a password reset disk.

    What do I do next and has anyone heard of any such thing?

    FWIW, the other accounts on the domain work just fine but I can't locally log on using the administrator account thorugh the local machine, from remote desktop, or from my FTP server. I don't know why or what it changed to without asking me

    No, never heard of such a thing.... it's not common for passwords to "change" without user interaction.
