After you hit Stop-A you should have a "ok" prompt.
boot the cdrom into single user
ok boot cdrom -s
I don't remember off-hand if it ask for a password but if it does, just hit return and you should be in.
Then you need to mount the boot DISK partition / onto /mnt
(it is probably c0t0d0s0 or c3t0d0s0)
# mount /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 /mnt
Then you cd to /mnt/etc, make sure your TERM is correct, vi passwd, and remove the x OR encrypted password from the root account - it will be the second field (colon separated fields)
root:x:0:1:Super-User:/root:/bin/ksh
save the file, cd /, umount /mnt, and fsck /dev/rdsk/c0t0d0s0 (or whatever the disk was). Then Stop-A and do
ok boot -s
This should put you into single user on the disk instead of cdrom.
Set the root password to whatever you want. Then it's Miller time.

Jifty::Plugin::Authentication::Password::Mixin::Model::UUser3Contributed Perl DocuJifty::Plugin::Authentication::Password::Mixin::Model::User(3pm)
NAME
Jifty::Plugin::Authentication::Password::Mixin::Model::User - password plugin user mixin model
SYNOPSIS
package MyApp::Model::User;
use Jifty::DBI::Schema;
use MyApp::Record schema {
# custom column definitions
};
use Jifty::Plugin::User::Mixin::Model::User; # name, email, email_confirmed
use Jifty::Plugin::Authentication::Password::Mixin::Model::User;
# ^^ password, auth_token
DESCRIPTION
This mixin model is added to the application's account model for use with the password authentication plugin. This mixin should be used in
combination with Jifty::Plugin::User::Mixin::Model::User.
SCHEMA
This mixin adds the following columns to the model schema:
auth_token
This is a unique identifier used when confirming a user's email account and recovering a lost password.
password
This is the user's password. It will be stored in the database after being processed through Digest::MD5, so the password cannot be
directly recovered from the database.
METHODS
register_triggers
Adds the triggers to the model this mixin is added to.
password_is PASSWORD
Checks if the user's password matches the provided PASSWORD.
hashed_password_is HASH TOKEN
Check if the given HASH is the result of hashing our (already salted and hashed) password with TOKEN.
This can be used in cases where the pre-hashed password is sent during login as an additional security precaution (such as could be done
via Javascript).
validate_password
Makes sure that the password is six characters long or longer, unless we have alternative means to authenticate.
after_create
This trigger is added to the account model. It automatically sends a notification email to the user for password confirmation.
See Jifty::Plugin::Authentication::Password::Notification::ConfirmEmail.
has_alternative_auth
If your model supports other means of authentication, you should have this method return true, so the "password" field can optionally be
null and authentication with password is disabled in that case.
after_set_password
Regenerate authentication tokens on password change
regenerate_auth_token
Generate a new auth_token for this user. This will invalidate any existing feed URLs.
