Portable Netware for HPUX password problem
Hello,
yes, we are using portable netware (is there anybody
who knows that?).
After a crash we need to restore the users from
a very old tape. The supervisor password is not
know.
Is there a program on the server side like native
netware's "setpwd.nlm" to restore the supervisor
from the console?

For saar2:
this is a version of Netware which does not run on an Intel cpu, but as a task under Unix (HP-UX i guess). You can not run standard nlm's on this box, as far as i know.

Hello,
to saar2 and joopv:
Yes, this Netware version is a kind of Netware 386 (3.10 I think).
There is no environment to run nlms. The operating system runs in the UNIX environment without nlms. In sys/system/ there are no *.lan or *.nlm files, just the normal bindery files.
No chance to run setpwd.nlm.
Interesting that it is possible to copy the bindery files (they are not locked). If I delete them I have a bindery with a new supervisor and a guest (like normal netware). But I need the old bindery with all the users.

maybe the structure of the bindery files is the same... try to install them on a real 3.x server, and then run one of the admin hack tools like burglar.nlm to create a new supervisor account.

Thanks for this tip. This worked. The bindery structure is the same.
