You can change the username in the database. But you have to change the password through the profile section of the board.

Or you can copy the Password and Salt field from a fresh database and put it into your current database to reset the password to "letmein".

OK thanks a lot. Password not a problem, does not requre a change.
 
Now another question if I may.
 
How do I move all the post done by a user to another user? (i.e all Bob's posts to John)?

You will have to go through the database and replace the Author_ID in all the tables from the old users author id to the new users author id.
