Another Way to Gain Admin Rights in Leopard
Posted in: Mac OS X by Damien Barrett No Comments »
I’m linking to this really just for the sake of coming back to it later. Typically, when I encounter a machine that I need admin access to and the user doesn’t know the password, I just reset the admin’s account password by booting off a Leopard Installer DVD, but here’s an way to add an account to the admin group, during Single-User-Mode boot, which achieves the same purpose.
