Hi Shawn,

You must have local serial console access to the unit to perform this
procedure. Keyboard and monitor directly connected to the machine will not
display the "boot:" line, which means you will not be able to perform this
procedure. 

1) Boot up in single user mode: To do this reboot or power cycle the
machine, When you see the line " boot: " you must enter "-s" before it goes
into multiuser mode. (you have about 10 seconds)

* on a ip330 or ip650 you need to type boot -s at the BOOTMGR prompt*

2) After it boots, it will ask you "Enter pathname of shell or RETURN for
sh:", press Enter key.

3) Type "/etc/overpw" in the # prompt. It will ask if you want continue,
type "y".

In IPSO 3.1.3 systems and earlier, it will ask you to put a floppy disk
into the floppy drive to make sure you have physical access to the box. Put
a floppy disk into the floppy drive and press Enter key. IPSO 3.1.4 and
later does not ask this question.

4) The admin password defaults to no password for admin. Continue to boot
to multiuser mode.

5) Re-config the passwd as usual, in Voyager.

Thanks!

hey guys, We have a Nokia 440 platform running Checkpoint Firewall.  It
hasn't been accessed in quite a wall, and the guys who designed the system
have not worked here for quite some time.  No one can remember the
password
to the Nokia or Checkpoint.  Does anyone know if there is a break sequence
or control key combo to get acces to change the password?

Shawn
