Hi,
I just read a small write-up at:
http://monkey.org/openbsd/FUQ/administartion/resetrootpasswd.html
It outlines how a user can get in if s/he has forgoten the root password.
Isn't it risky? so if someone has physical access to a machine they can
easily get in.
Is there anyway to override this behaviour?
Then we can make a machine super secure by having a box without a floppy
disk or a CD-ROM drive.
