Hi folks !
I'm servicing another HP 400 (with this, should remain five...)
I booted happily and at the login request I wrote the pair root/password
which I found for the HP 400 machines already analyzed
(cracked with John the Ripper).
I got this message: "Account has expired or has become invalid".
If I wrote root/another password, I get the standard error message, so the
aforesaid pair should be ok.
How to break in, now ?

I never had to do this myself, but the writeup for that is in the FAQ:

Let us know how it goes... :)

Well, this seems a complex question ...

Booted in service mode and tried
)wd /sys/registry
found two files,
rgy_local and rgy_local.bak
can't chn o dlf, not enough rights...
Looked into /etc/daemons, no llbd (rpcd), rgyd or glbd.
crf-ed them, rebooted, but no success.
Some questions:
1) may reiterate failure to login invalidate an account ?
2) /etc/passwd file, reveals root/taurus (John the Ripper), but
system responds to root/fener (found in another 400t).
root/fener ---> account expired or not valid.
root/taurus --> invalid account.
So /etc/passwd is there just for compatibility, the real password hash
is stored into rgy_local ?
3) Can I connect it to another node and try to access ? The question is:
which TCP address has ? (May find it with tcpdump) ? There will be ACL issues ?
4) Since I have a disk image of the HD, I could try a Q&D hack. Find the
directory data of /sys/registry/ and change the name from
rgy_local to _gy_local (or similar). It should boot without registry and
allow me to enter ...

running the same version (SR 10.4), mount the disk and rename the rgy_local...

After some minor adjustments, netbooted the HP, mounted the local disk and
renamed rgy_local.
Rebooted and accessed the system with user/-apollo- .
Some tools were missing, like rgy_create, so did an rcp with the other machine.
The node were already catalogued, since the machines come from the same place.
All the process was a real breeze.
Recreated the registry, restarted the daemons, set up the tcp/ip parameters
and the machine is ready.
Must admit that Apollo networking was already ahead of its time.
