Dunno how old this topic is, but I personally am grateful such a backdoor exists. We just picked up a Partner VS as part of a payment for moving a system (the partner system was left behind by previous tennants), and the admin password was changed. I was able to get the backdoor and put the password back to default so that I could program the system.
If you can't program it, the system is useless...
Stupid question...is the R7 password different (send me the answer via PM if you're able...)
