Summary: Is there a way to change all DECSERVER passwords at once?
References:



My company's VAX manager *suddenly* left the company, so we are in a bit
of a security panic.  All of the obvious security problems have been addressed,
but we want to be thorough.  Is there any way to download new Priv. and Maint.
passwords to all of our DECSERVER 200's from a host VAX?  Having to log into
a port on each is going to be a very time consuming method.  (It also
is potentially error prone.)

Any suggestions are welcome.  (And needed as soon as possible!)
