: Hey is there some way to recory or reset the admin password for
: Oracle 7.3.x o for Solaris?

yes. use svrmgrl and os authentication.

log in to the machine that you're running the server from, using the account that you used to install the software (or any account that belongs to the dba group on your machine).

prompt% svrmgrl

SVRMGR> connect internal
Connected.
SVRMGR> alter user [sys|system] identified by [new_password] User altered.
SVRMGR> exit

Alternatively, when you have connected internal, the unencrypted user passwords are somewhere in the static data dictionary views. Try DBA_USERS, that would be my first place to check.
