Summary - Sun B1600 how to reset switch admin password?

Hi All

One response (thanks Tim), but no solution from the list, but a few web
posts asking the same on Sun and other message boards.

I did manage to find the solution via friend of friend route. I will
gladly pass on the info, but as it could also render the switch unusable
if you delet the wrong file, I would prefer if amyone wanting to do it,
to contact me directly. I am guessing this is why Sun have not released
this in the public domain due to it not beinmg foolproof (unlike the
password reset for the controller).

All the best

Peter


Hi All

Hopefully someone can put me out of my misery.

I have a B1600 which has a password set for the swich unit (not the
system control unit). I cannot find any way to reset the password as the
one already set is lost. I have reset the system controller password
using the remove power supply technique, but this does not appear to
have any impact on the switch password.

Any help greatfully received.

Thanks

Peter
