Installation

The wiki and forum systems have changed encryption methods and some passwords need to be reset. If you can't login: first set (or reset) your password on the wiki (you can use the "forgot password" link). Make sure to complete the process to set a "new" permanent password. Then use that permanent password for moodle as well as the wiki.
