General Troubleshooting Information To reset the admin password to a default value Note You must have local serial access to your appliance console to perform this procedure. With a keyboard and monitor directly connected to the appliance, the boot: prompt does not appear, and you cannot perform this procedure. 1. Boot up the appliance in single-user mode by restarting or power cycling the appliance. When the boot: prompt appears, enter -s before the appliance goes into multiuser mode; you have about 10 seconds to do this. 2. After the appliance boots up, the following text appears: Enter pathname of shell or RETURN for sh: Press Enter. 3. Type /etc/overpw at the # prompt. When the response asks if you want to continue, type y. 4. The admin password defaults to no password for admin. Continue to boot to multiuser mode. 5. Reconfigure the password as you normally would in Lynx. Note Blank passwords are not accepted in Voyager or Lynx. In such cases, enter the following command to reset the password from the command line using a blank password: dbpasswd admin newpassword "" The two double quotation marks at the end of the command properly indicate a blank password. After you execute this command, the system reports that the password was not successfully changed. However, the password is changed and is now newpassword. Nokia 60s and 100s Installation Guide 87
