Hmmm. Not that I recall. Seems to me that one could boot with the boot
switch in service mode (so it doesn't boot right through to DOMAIN/OS,
though, and you could get a shell, allowing one to use a command-line
editor to edit out the offending password.
If you are still stuck in a couple of days, I can fire up my SR10.2
DN3000 and see what I can see.

I have a vintage apollo question...
In the late 1980's when HP acquired Apollo Computer Inc, I recall there
was an HP root account, that shipped with every new machine. In many
cases this account was not removed.
I recently acquired a DN3000 and to my amazement it was clean, and
booted to an SR10.4 login prompt. Does anybody remember that HP account
and password? Alternative cracks would be welcomed as well.
