[Mediawiki-l] How to reset Wiki Admin's user name and password (from server command line)?

Due no doubt to a mistake on my part, I know find that the user name and 
p/w I thought I'd specified for the wiki admin during setup weren't 
actually what went through. There is an account called "wikiadmin", so 
perhaps I somehow submitted the defaults.

In any case, could someone please explain, or direct me to instructions, 
to change the wiki admin account name and password? I have full access 
to both the server and the wiki DB. Surely someone has lost or forgotten 
their password before :-)

Let's hope this is the last installation goof on my part,
Ken
