NCR MP-RAS 3.02 Root Password

I've just inherited the support of 3 NCR Servers running NCR MP-RAS 3.02 UNIX OS and it looks as though the previous support analyst (who as left the company) has kindly changed all 3 root passwords. Also there are no installation / boot cd's and the etc/passwd directory can only be updated by root.
Has anyone got any ideas?
Cheers
