I've had to do that before, when I've forgotten passwords too. Another way to modify the user rights (especially if copying the file over means wiping out a bunch of existing users) is to download default.pass and manually change the rights as such
Code:
# UserID : Password :
View :
Add :
Del :
Mod:

1 Change the zeros (no/false) to ones (yes/true) where necessary and reupload the file (in ascii format, of course).
