It's been a long time, and I've worked with a variety of early-1980s versions of RSX, but the account, at least, is probably [1,4]. Unfortunately, I can't recall what program you have to invoke to twiddle passwords and privs. It might even be dependent on exactly what version of RSX you have, if it's an old one (not all that likely, though, if it's a MicroPDP. It would be more likely on an 11/34, say). IIRC, you'll have to do some type of SYSGEN - lots of questions to answer, then several hours as your wee little F-11 spins its wheels and builds a new system. I haven't done a sysgen in over 20 years, so hopefully someone else with fresher experience can speak up. I don't know of any, and I wasn't able to Google any. :-/ -ethan
