+# SUPER USER PASSWORD OVERRIDE
+
+In the event that the SuperUser password is lost it can be reset using this setting.
+Upon booting up the server will reset the current SuperUser User account password to this value.
+It should only be used to temporarily reset the password and never left in place.
+
+## Default
+
+This setting is not used by default.
+
+## Overriding
+
+AyaNova expects the override password to be provided by an environment variable or command line parameter named:
+
+`AYANOVA_SET_SUPERUSER_PW`
+
+The value specified should be a string used to temporarily override the super user password e.g.:
+`Th3RainInSpainFallsMainlyOnTh3Pla1n`
+
+
+Example command line parameter
+
+`dotnet run --AYANOVA_SET_SUPERUSER_PW="Th3RainInSpainFallsMainlyOnTh3Pla1n"`
+
+Example environment variable
+
+Windows
+
+`set "AYANOVA_SET_SUPERUSER_PW=Th3RainInSpainFallsMainlyOnTh3Pla1n"`
+
+Linux / MAC
+
+`export AYANOVA_SET_SUPERUSER_PW="Th3RainInSpainFallsMainlyOnTh3Pla1n"`
+
+If both a command line parameter and an environment variable are set the command line parameter takes precedence.
