Re: Reset root password -- Trusted System

hi

root:u_name=root:u_id#0:\
:u_pwd=:\
:u_bootauth:u_auditid#:\
:u_auditflag#1:\
:u_minchg#:u_exp#:u_succhg#:u_unsucchg#:\
:u_pw_expire_warning#:u_pswduser=root:u_suclog#:u_unsuclog#:\
:u_unsuctty=console:u_lock@:chkent:


editing in :u_pwd is enough to change the pwd in trusted system,by editing this it wont ask for old pwd.

we have to do such things if critical database are running , we cant reboot it in single user mode for such things, sometimes rules should be violated.


regards
