    Admin is essentailly root on the Nokias, but you might be able to ue

            dbset root newpassword ""
    then
            dbset :save

    ...from the command line. That'll null out the password, although on
    recent versions of IPSO we've seen the password revert back to the old
    admin password on reboot.

    I've tried this for admin passwords but haven't tried it for root yet,
    although it -should- work.
