The short story for how to do this is presented at: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=isg3T1000366 I did need to obtain an IBMid to read the web page completely, and I started with a CD labelled “AIX V4.2.1 for 5765-C34”. As you will see if you read the thread, subject "Password reset for ~1998 AIX on RS/6000?”, other alternatives exist, but this was all I needed. Hope this helps! Let me know if you need any other pointers. - Mark
