Thank you all for your replies. All replies said to do what I thought was
not possible, (wasn't possible back in OSF3.1)

Simply boot into single user, mount the filesystems, (mount -a), and run
`passwd`.

The problem was the root password was forgotten after it was changed on a
4.0D system running enhanced security.

Cheers,
