Reset password

Even on a development machine that I use everyday, I may have forgotten the clever password I set up for the user Neo4j, as I have several versions installed on my machine.

The solution is to stop your server, then change the directory to the data/dbms subfolder, and remove the file named auth.

Check for other hosts

To know what hosts are running on your local network, with SSH access enabled, I offer you this little script:

#!/bin/bash

port=22
for ordi in `nmap -sn 192.168.0.1-100 /25 | egrep "scan report" | awk '{print $5}'`
do 
   echo Found IP $ordi on network.
   echo --------------------------------------
done
echo Now trying them for port $port , sorry for the timeout on successful connections...
