    This one's got me stumped. I inherited a SunFire 280R. I can get into the
    RSC serial port no problem, but I don't have a username/password (I tried
    "admin/admin") to log in and interact with the RSC shell.

    Serial A & B are DB-25 ports. I have a DB-25 null modem cable that works
    fine on a V880, but no joy here. Is that because "input-device" and
    "output-device" are set to "rsc-console"? Am I wasting my time even trying
    to get in via Serial A if RSC's been set up?

    If "input-device" and "output-device" have been set to "rsc-console," is
    there any way to get to the "ok" prompt other than via RSC? How do I boot
    the system if I can't even get to the "ok" prompt? I don't mind
    reinstalling Solaris; I'm probably going to do so anyways, but how can I
    get into this thing?
