You make sure the OS user belongs to ORADBA group in windows or DBA group in Linux, then to connect as sys as sysdba try following command.
connect / as sysdba

note : also make one change in SQLNET.ORA file add this entry if it was not there
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES=(NTS)

best of luck

Thanx & Rgrds

Login to system as OS user, which apart to dba groop and then in sqlplus:
a)In Oracle 8 exec connect internal
b)In Oracle 9 start sqlplus with option /nolog and then connect as any user(for example username aaa) and any password.
Then you can change password of any user.
