This isn't a huge deal, because there's very little on the server (literally a file or two) that we actually need off of it. But we disabled root logins as a security measure and can't remember any of our other user passwords.

I'm assuming that there's nothing we can do at this point to get into the server? I'm sitting next to the box...

Update

Oops... actually, I need to export an SVN off of this server. So yeah, there's stuff I need.
