That gets me into 1,2, and I can run money from [0,9], but it doesn't seem
to matter if I tell money to print passwords or not, I still don't get
passwords printing...
Doesn't the system have to store the 1,2 password someplace so it can log
into the account at startup?
Thanks!

Ok, I haven't used a RSTS after version 7.0, but
assuming that it
didn't change much.....
Start your system. When the startup process is going on, watch
for 1/2 to log on to do things like setting up the CCLs, defining
the KB speed, setting up logicals, adding run time systems,
starting ERRCPY, etc. Try to hit control-c while it is logged
onto 1,2. You may have to hit ^C *very quickly repeatedly* to
get it before it logs off. Once you stop the startup process,
then you can RUN $MONEY to find out what your password is.
If things have changed considerably between v7 and v9, this
might not work.

Subject: I'm stupider than you!! RSTS/E question
Ok, I've done something stupid. Really stupid.
I'm almost afraid to post this, because you all will think I am stupid.
I lost the 1,x password to my RSTS/E 9 system. I picked a strong
password,
wrote it on a piece of paper, and put it on my desk.
I strongly suspect
that it became part of a drawing one of my children did, you know, this is
me, this is you, this is the house, and the chimney, that's your password.
Anyway, my PDP is a just-pretend simh type PDP (because it would be
divorce
court if I installed a real one in my house...) and I
have it all set up
the
way I like it, with custom scripts and Dungeon and
Adventure, so that
people
can play these games on the internet via a bbs front
end. Each user gets
their own account... so they can save their games...
... it took a while to make this work. I'd rather not have to set it up
again. Is there any way to hack into my own box to recover my own
password,
or is it time to mount the install "tapes"
and start all over again?
Damn!
