Hi,


I have lost my System(Root) password on CX II. I tried to reset the password using Hyper-terminal but somehow the command didn't work.

The next option which i have is to do backup by connecting to serial cable my CX II and then re-install my system from scratch and then restore the backup but it wipes but unfortunately as soon as i restore everything it again wipes out my new username and password. It means i am just moving on a round-about looking for guidance from seniors. In a nutshell

1) Anyway to reset the system on CX II . I tried it ResetLoginPassword"username" but it gives an Undefined Symbol error for ResetLoginPassword command.

2A) Command to do backup using Vxworks (CommandLine/Hyperterminal). As i don't have login to use GUI





I would be very thankful to you all
 
Hi danramirez,

I really appreciate your help. To get more granularity I would like to give you more details. I am using VxWorks version 5.5.2 and ICP release version 10.2.2.10 and I believe that its version 4.2. About the command you have mentioned is it for CX II or its just a common command for all. As you mentioned about the command I am wondering if this will work only for version 5 then do you know the command for versoin 4.2.

Thanks Again for your reply
