Unable to bring up Sun OS
The last thing I did was set REMOTE_LOGIN_PASSWORDFILE to EXCLUSIVE. Then rebooted server. Since that time I have not been able to login. During bootup it can't find root and generates alot of errors. Does anybody know of a default login and password that will allow me to log in and rebuild the password file? It's either that or I will need to find a boot recovery CD.

You need to boot from a CD.

The remote_login_passwordfile is an Oracle item, isn't it? If so, it sounds like rebooting it either hosed it up or there's something mucked up in /etc/vfstab (for example). If you're not able to log in to the system itself then yea, you'll need to find a boot CD and figure out what got hosed.
