I picked up a
microvax 3100 this past weekend from a office that was
shutting down.
I beg to differ with HP's recommendation (in their doc set) for
Devin'ssituation.? HP's description is meant for customer sites to have a copyof
usernames/passwords to which they can revert for nasty situationssuch as a corrupted
SYSUAF.DAT.? *If* this system has the 'alternate'file, it should have the same
problem as the original, of unknownpasswords.? What Devin needs is instructions to break
into the system.
I happen to know how to do that (used to work in OpenVMS Engineering).Is that something
that should be discussed here?
Thanks,Dick
I was able to start the system up, it boots up to
a login prompt for VMS
VAX 7.3.
I do not have any login info for this machine, is
there a procedure i can
follow to reset a password to an account?
