There may not be one (it may matter on version of Solaris, services you are using [NIS, NIS+,...]). See the man page for passwd.

Which is no longer available in Solaris 10.

Depends on what you're looking for.

From the man page:

passwd -u <user>

Unlocks a locked password for entry name. See the -d option for removing the
locked password, or to set a password to allow logins.

passwd -d <user>

Deletes password for name and unlocks the account. The login name is not prompted for password. It is only applicable to the files repository.

Hope that helps.
