COINCIDENTLY: I was trying to break into a DEC 3000/500 system I inherited
from a launched development project here at OCLC.
Rick Murphy's post also got me into single user mode on my system, But
unlike you I haven't a Clue on how to edit the password files now that I am
In.
I had almost sent off for NetBSD for the Flamingo, but reading thier list
I could not have used the console or Mouse that is on this system.
My system has Digital Unix V4.0D (rev 878) May 5 1998
During the Boot the system changes Fonts and goes to 1280X1024 Mode
My system has 224 MBytes of Ram 2 RZ25 drives, one RZ26 drive, one RRD42
cd drive and a TLZ06 tape transport. It also has the DEC lance ethernet
installed.
So how do I edit the root password from here? This is my first foray into
unix admin....
