​Embarrassed to report that I locked myself out of my system. System is running 
VM/ESA 2.3 with VM:Manager 2.6 and running the Rules Facility. Broadcom is no 
help as we don't have maintenance on a product that has reached end of life as 
Broadcom won't support it because of that.

What I have tried: I thought I set up VM:Operator to be able to link nopass to 
VM:Secure 1b0 but for some reason that doesn't work. I also can't link to 
VMXSYSAD 191, where we stash a nightly backup of the directory. I've tried the 
LINK command and the system wants a READ password and that doesn't work as I 
don't know what it is.I think someone undid things that I set up before I 
retired, because I knew I would be back. Link attempt to VMX 1b0 fails because 
of some RULE. We use logonby so we only have to know OUR own account password 
but I've managed to lock myself out of my account so no dice in anything I try.

What is left? There are a few privileged accounts left that I might try (OP1) 
for instance, but if someone changed its password to something other than OP1, 
my plan will fail.

Any ideas are most welcome!

TIA
