A few months back, a friend who runs a small charity organisation asked if I would take a look at an old server they had sitting in a cupboard.
I said I would and, having a few days off work finally got around to checking it out.
The first issue is that it boots into Linux and I am a complete newbie when it come to Linux.
At the end of the boot up, I get what I assume is the OS version (Debian GNU/Linux lenny/sid serv01 tty1) and session id, as then a login prompt:
serv01 login:
Unfortunately, no one has any idea of what the appropriate username (or password) is.
Is there some way around this?
I should mention that there is a Windows XP Pro sticker on the machine - if, as this suggests, it has dual OS loaded, is there some way to make it boot up in XP?
Thanks, in advance.
