        I suppose if you are a masochist, yes :-)

        The original poster seems to have missed
        the required
                $ SET NOON

        That should be the first thing you
        type, without that the first error
        bombs you out and you get to
        boot all over again ...

        It looks like he just didn't know
        that at the Username: prompt,
        if you have managed to boot with
        SYSUAFALT (and the startup files
        don't plug this hole! ... which is
        the reason for the long-winded
        crack anyway) then as long as
        it's the console and as long as
        you enter SYSTEM you just need
        to hit RETURN (well anything really)
        for both the password prompts and
        you are in.

        Copious details at:
        http://www.openvms.compaq.com/wizard/openvms_faq.html

        and plenty of docs at

        http://www.openvms.compaq.com:8000/

        (OpenVMS User's manual is probably
         a good one to start with).

        Be nice to see that list of docs ...

        Antonio
