Hello all.

A local person has succeded in locking up her Pro/350 by giving the thing
a username/password and forgetting it.  Now she can't get onto it at all.

I've suggested the usual RSX-11M remedy to this situation (ie Ctrl/C to
get the MCR> prompt during bootup, and look at [0,0]RSX11.SYS) but I 
suspect this may not work under P/OS.  Does anyone know for sure?  If it 
won't work, does anyone know a procedure that does?

TIA.
