Root account locked in trusted computer base

[RK_7]

Hi all,

Here we have implemented TCB in our servers and now in one of our server root account becomes locked.even from console it is not getting login.When I try from console it is getting error as accout locked.We have enabled the option "Require Login Upon Boot to Single-User State".So we are unable to login to single user mode and login.Is there any way to unlock root password?

Regards,

Shalom,

This sounds like an HP-UX question.

Console login unlocks the root password, even on a trusted system.

Otherwise boot into single user mode.

You have made it tough by password protecting single user mode, but it should work, if you still know the password.

If you do not know the password then you should boot off a Core OS cd and manually edit root's password file, nulling it out.
