Hi Guys,
I obtained a Sun SparcStation 4 at the CoCoFEST for which I need some
information on the proper hook up of the cables. The SCSI cables I can
guess, but the PS/2 cables I'm not so sure of. There is one PS/2 connector
on the back of the Monitor labeled A/B and on the SparcStstion itself is a
DB25 pin connector labeled Serial A/B. Do these connect together? One PS/2
connector exists on the Sparcstation so how does both the PS/2 connector on
the Keyboard and the mouse connect to the SparcStation?
Also I understand that it is password protected so I need the "Super-secret"
procedure to remove the password. I was told this is possible.
Documentation in any form is quite necessary as well. Any leads as to where
to obtain these as well? I haven't looked at sun.com yet, but I most
certainly will. Your help is most appreciated. Thank you in advance for
any help you can give. Take care my friends.
The Service manual for the SS 4 is still available from (harcle ...)
oracle.com.
A small search thru google will find it.
In fact: snarf as much doc/sw as you can.
Breaking in ? a suitable cd-reader eases the pain or is the boot monitor
(forth monitor) password protected ?
If the prom is unlocked, "boot -s" will bring up the machine in single
user.
Or, does it boot ? try to break into it over the network.
Depending on configuration it can be easy.
