Operating Systems SCO root access Post 71985 by RBurer on Tuesday 17th of May 2005 01:49:28 PM

root access
We have SCO 5.0.5 and can't log into system as "root". The system indicates the password is incorrect. No one knows what happened.
How can we resolve this issue.. Are there files we can restore from backup...?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you..
