Hi Jonathan,

That's the trick.  You see, in order to do that the machine must be up with 
the os runnining.  Unfortunately, it is sitting at the boot prom.  In order 
to run a boot command, the password must be satisfied.  So as you can see, we 
are back to square 1.  I really appreciate your reply and thank you anyway,

Phil
