The age-old trick is boot to single user mode, then change the password with
the passwd command.
As I recall on HP-UX, during the boot process you'll see a line about "init
something something"... I believe you hit space here, then type the same
init line but append "-s" to designate going to single user. If this totally
vague and possibly inaccurate email doesn't help, let me know and I'll go
boot up a box to refresh my memory.

Jay,
Can you (or anyone else on the list) get around the password on one of
these? It's running HP-UX 9.05. The OS is installed on a MountainGate
IncreMeg 1 Gb removeable hard drive (nice drive!) I found that this one
was
used on the Final Assembly Test Station for the
Predator Autopilot!
