Right now email notification of the new password is the only way through the
application. The other thing you can try is stop the server and edit
tomcat-users.xml file by hand. Be aware that the passwords in that file are
sha-1 encoded. You can generate a digest hash for a password using the
utilities that tomcat provides (see
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-5.5-doc/realm-howto.html#Digested%20Passwords).
