I changed the root password for an inherited raq2 a week before the

myself unable to su to root. Before I use the reset password button, I
check to make certain httpd is running. It's not and when I try to
start it, I find that the httpd.conf has errors that prevent apache
from
starting. The config is owned by root, so I cannot change it. I'm able
to connect to the system as a regular user, but the web server will not
start, so the password reset button is pretty much useless. Yikes. Any
useful suggestions on how to proceed before I toss this box into the
trash and rebuild it on solaris?
connect a terminal to the serial port.
change roots password
