Yes, if you can (and should be able to) get a console prompt, the
method I used was to do
SET UAFALT 1
CONTINUE

which set the authorize file to the alternate, which on our systems
did not exist. Then when you enter system as the login id, any
password works.

I did not know about the method of setting the console to startup,
it sounds like another, better way.

In my way, you have to play around in sysgen and swap the authorize
files around after you get on, but still, any port in a storm.
