Password recovery?
Hello everyone,

ive got a small problem regarding a M5 here.
Someone lost its password (console and config).
I've tried the well-known password recovery mode using single user mode
and /usr/libexec/ui/recovery-mode, however it says that it cant find
that file then. Its running JunOS 5.1R1.4.
Any ideas?

Regards,
Jonas

It should be therre, according to FA-SW-0203-006. So someone probably
messed around with your file system.

Please mail in private the exact steps you took.
