Whoops. Transposing two letters gives you a completely different question.

The server in question is a V120.

The Sun infodoc only talks about the V210/240/250/440... Thats why I posted
here. There are summaries for the V210, but it doesn't work for the V120.

And also, as several people have mentioned using various solaris tools to
clear the password will work fine, and thats what we want to do -- but we
have to get past the LOM password to boot the server...
