Hi list
We got this toshiba server and at first couldn't get it working.
After removing the second drive (which is faulty), the server boots up.
Now we can connect to it but there is a big problem!
In the manual it says that there are three default accounts: root, telnetuser,
and applianceadmin, all with password toshiba.
I just tried all three of them and those are no longer the passwords! The
previous owner must have changed them.
I realize this is a bit delicate, but does anyone know of a tool that can
generate brute force passwords to try over ssh?
Alternatively, what other options are there? The harddrives are of a very
tiny model and a ide cable doesn't fit on it. The server is headless, and
you can't connect a keyboard to it.
With kind regards
Andy
Using physical access, you can try key-combinations like CTRL-ALT-ENT,
CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE ... to log in without passwort.
I had a simelar problem with a appliance. No password was acceted. And
no chance to use a floppy/Cd- drive. But typing CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE did a
log in.
May be the ventor assumes that physical access is not availible to
foreingns to such systems..
