if you have console access to the machine, security is no longer a consideration really. it is easy to boot a cd or a floppy or even reconfigure lilo(maybe grub too, havent tried) to boot to a root shell > most importantly, is there a way to prevent this? a security through obscurity way would be to run another filesystem like reiserfs or xfs or jfs or something that doesn't have drivers for another OS. you can of course encrypt any files you find sensitive. nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
