Mike and Loon,
The box was setup as a standard load. So I believe that it is not a trusted system. Also, I have an /etc/securetty file that needs root privileges to open or change. I search the HP faqs for anything on the root account becoming disabled and found nothing. I believe I'm stuck...
I tried but SAM will not run from single-user. I also tried to login as another user and the su command followed by the password. It still says the account is disabled. I can run SAM as a user but I do not have the privleges to add or remove users or groups.
I do not have another account with access to sam. I am able to log on with another user at the console howerver, I am not able to su -. I also tried to boot into single-user mode and change my root password which was successful. On reboot, the root account was still disabled.
