yeah... just looked into the systemhandbook... there is indeed no commandline tool from solaris to work with the alom. the only password reset method is the already mentioned one with a serial line.
you should check if there is a serial line to the server via a terminal server. if not, you have to go onsite...

LDATTACH(8) Linux Programmer's Manual LDATTACH(8)
NAME
ldattach - attach a line discipline to a serial line
SYNOPSIS
ldattach [-dhV78neo12] [-s speed] ldisc device
DESCRIPTION
The ldattach daemon opens the specified device file (which should refer to a serial device) and attaches the line discipline ldisc to it
for processing of the sent and/or received data. It then goes into the background keeping the device open so that the line discipline
stays loaded.
The line discipline ldisc may be specified either by name or by number.
In order to detach the line discipline, kill(1) the ldattach process.
With no arguments, ldattach prints usage information.
LINE DISCIPLINES
Depending on the kernel release, the following line disciplines are supported:
TTY(0) The default line discipline, providing transparent operation (raw mode) as well as the habitual terminal line editing capabilities
(cooked mode).
SLIP(1)
Serial Line IP (SLIP) protocol processor for transmitting TCP/IP packets over serial lines.
MOUSE(2)
Device driver for RS232 connected pointing devices (serial mice).
PPP(3) Point to Point Protocol (PPP) processor for transmitting network packets over serial lines.
STRIP(4)
AX25(5)
X25(6) Line driver for transmitting X.25 packets over asynchronous serial lines.
6PACK(7)
R3964(9)
Driver for Simatic R3964 module.
IRDA(11)

HDLC(13)
