The default password that is assigned to sam_exec via rsh
to a cluster machine is "Yosemite" on hpux v9.X . (cute, eh?)
Not sure if that carried over to 10.0.
Any HP reps on bugtraq? I suggest that if this info was not available
before, you seriously consider releasing a bug report,
and implementing an alternative to sam_exec.
Its a pretty pathetic way to force your users to
remotely administer your product.
Not to mention .. a security problem.
