Hi,

A colleague applied an access list to the Nginx Proxy Manager (NPM) portal by mistake and promptly forgot the password. We are now locked out of accessing the portal. Is there a way to reset this as we have access to the server and the docker container?

[Solved] I found the config files in the docker container and commented # out the basic auth line. all works fine again but with no auth pop up box.
