Problem Entered wrong password.
Solution Obtain a valid password or set the 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.
To reset the admin password to a default value
1.
Boot up the appliance in single-user mode by restarting or power cycling the appliance.
When the
boot:
prompt appears, type
boot -s
and press enter 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
.
When you are returned to the prompt, type Ctrl + d to reboot with admin user and a new
password.
4. The admin password defaults to no password for admin.
Continue to boot to multiuser mode.
5. Reconfigure the password as you normally would.
Note
Blank passwords are not accepted in Check Point Network Voyager. 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
.
Finally, return the entire database to its default settings and bring up the new system-startup
procedure. The new system-startup procedure is described in
Chapter 3, “Performing the Initial
Configuration.”
