Need to recover root/whm password on active server

[fog]

Hello,

I have lost root access to my server while trying to change the pass via WHM. How can I recover it or reset it or whatever without losing the server's content? Please help.

I think the only way is to have it reset manually, which would require contacting the company you get your server from.

Fixed Had to boot in single user mode... normal recovery procedure for Linux I believe.
