hello.

Con you log in thru the console ?.

Otherwise you have to shutdown the system and go into single user mode.

try this command.
usr/lbin/modprpw -k userid

The root login is available from the console.

Use modprpw command to activate the account.

/usr/lbin/modprpw -k root

regards,
ivan

Vijila,

If you can not get it from console, then follow the steps in this thread to recover your password:

We get that same problem alot. Logging in thru the console has always fixed this. We didn't even have to run the modprpw. The console log in was enough.
