Description

@tkimnguyen

The documentation at https://github.com/plone/documentation/blob/5.1/manage/troubleshooting/basic.rst for creating an emergency Zope user points to http://quintagroup.com/services/support/tutorials/zope-access which dates back to 2008 and doesn't seem to work (at least didn't for me); the paths mentioned don't seem to exist any longer.

The method mentioned in https://community.plone.org/t/plone-site-wont-allow-me-to-log-in-with-zope-users-created-with-bin-instance-adduser/, bin/instance adduser myadmin newpassword is much simpler and actually works (for me, anyway).

I'm not sure whether we should remove the link to the old tutorial entirely or should spend time to figure out if it still works and bring an updated version of that information directly in our documentation or just add the information about bin/instance adduser myadmin newpassword
