Thanks. Well SCO had several SCO V/386's. As to cracking the password off line - forget it. You may be lucky and your best bet if you want to do that is get one of the CD's with fully encrypted dictionaries. If you have the boot floppies you can break out in the install and wind up at a shell prompt. The you can mount the hd, and chroot to /mnt, and then just run passwd root The Cicso list is not the place where you'll get the best answers. You can also try the comp.unix.misc.sco.misc group. You need to boot up and make note of the exact version of the OS. There are replacement boot floppies for several of the SCO versions at one of the caldera.com web sites. > End of Cisco Certification Digest V2 #1814 > ****************************************** > unsubscribe from this list send a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] > with the body containing: > > unsubscribe cisco-digest [EMAIL PROTECTED] > If that does not work, follow the instructions at: > http://www.groupstudy.com/list/help.html Message Posted at: http://www.groupstudy.com/form/read.php?f=7&i=30761&t=30761 -------------------------------------------------- FAQ, list archives, and subscription info: http://www.groupstudy.com/list/cisco.html Report misconduct and Nondisclosure violations to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
