We are using NMSAP and they have decided to utilize ASM disk, which requires 
SAP to be installed as the oracle user instead of the ora<sid> user.  I try to 
run the nsrsapadm -P -z command to setup the oracle user, but it requires a 
password.  For security reasons all local user accounts have no passwords and 
you can't log directly into them.  Instead we log in with global users and sudo 
su into whatever account we need to.

Any ideas how to get around not having a password to provide for the config 
file?
