I'm running a Chef server in the cloud. I can't log into the "Chef Manage" web interface because I forgot my password.
I can still use knife to (for example) update nodes from my workstation using the server.
I can still ssh to the server using my private key. I tried running sudo private-chef-ctl password myusername and "successfully" changed my password; however, when I try to sign in using the new password, the web interface still says "Maximum login failures reached, please reset your password."
When I submit the password reset form in the web interface, it says "Your password reset email has been sent", but my server isn't configured to send emails.
How can I reset my password so that I can log into the Chef server using the web interface?

If you are in a Linux box, you can change your email address to <user>@<hostname> using chef-server-ctl user-edit <chef_username> command. You can check the email via the mail command.
A more elegant solution would be to install a smtp proxy in the same box.
