Hi hicksd8,
I did eventually get into the LOM by swapping the SCC card for one with a known password, but the first thing I will do if I can get the `OK` prompt is install Solaris and reset the password on the first SCC card.
If only I could get the 'OK' openboot prompt

I recently acquired a server for home use. Currently, I'm running a V210. I was wondering of a way to basically swap hard drives into the V440.
I would like to avoid reinstall on the V440 for many reasons.

I'm currently trying to move a perfectly find harddrive from a V210 to a V440. From what I can tell, the disk labeling a bit different, (V210 is c1t0d0 and V440 is c0t0d0). My question is, what all do I have to change to get the V440 to boot off of this with very little complications. Right now, it... (21 Replies)

In saying that, I have... (12 Replies)

Hey,
I have a V210 with a failed CPU fan.
The temperature is currently at 84C and I've been asked to wait a few weeks before replacing as its a production system and it cant be shut down yet.
Is it too hot? Do I risk killing the CPU at this temp?
Its been like this for a few weeks now... (5 Replies)

GETPASS(3) BSD Library Functions Manual GETPASS(3)
NAME
getpass -- get a password
LIBRARY
Standard C Library (libc, -lc)
SYNOPSIS
#include <pwd.h>
#include <unistd.h>
char *
getpass(const char *prompt);
DESCRIPTION
The getpass() function displays a prompt to, and reads in a password from, /dev/tty. If this file is not accessible, getpass() displays the
prompt on the standard error output and reads from the standard input.
The password may be up to _PASSWORD_LEN (currently 128) characters in length. Any additional characters and the terminating newline charac-
ter are discarded.
The getpass() function turns off character echoing while reading the password.
RETURN VALUES
The getpass() function returns a pointer to the null terminated password.
FILES
/dev/tty
SEE ALSO
crypt(3), readpassphrase(3)
HISTORY
A getpass() function appeared in Version 7 AT&T UNIX.
BUGS
The getpass() function leaves its result in an internal static object and returns a pointer to that object. Subsequent calls to getpass()
will modify the same object.
The calling process should zero the password as soon as possible to avoid leaving the cleartext password visible in the process's address
space.
Upon receipt of a SIGTSTP, the input buffer will be flushed, so any partially typed password must be retyped when the process continues.
