Hi Jeffrey,
The file system formats are probably different, and you won't be able
to mount the drive.
Your best bet is to just attach the drive, and read the RAW device with
a quick/dirty C program that looks for the string
"root:abcdefghijklm:0:0:" and replaces it with
"root::0:0:abcdefghijklm"
The basic idea is to replace the encrypted password with either nothing
(if allowed) or an encrypted password you know.
Good luck

Fess up! ;-)
I've got an alibi in the logs on my Sun box. It will say I have booted
several times and failed to log on as root several dozen times due to
password authentication errors.
Oh please oh please will someone help me mount this sunos drive on my
clone. The closest I have gotten is ''io error - cannot mount
xxxxxxxx''
or 'invalid option for filesystem UFS'.
I am trying to mount a sunos 5.4 scsi drive on my clone running solaris 7
x86. It is killing me. I have not slept in three days more or less.
