lost admin password

I checked the forums as my 60 day enterprise licence expired and I like to convert to the free perpetual licence. But splunk won't let me log on saying it expired and I forgot my administration password. How do I fix this?

 

thanks

You can reset from the server by using

./splunk cmd splunkd rest --noauth POST /services/admin/users/admin "password=<your password>"

You must restart Splunk Enterprise after making this change.
