Just out of curiosity, what's the recommended method of recovering root's password on Debian once you forget what it is? I booted rescue/ramdisk0 from floppies and deleted root's password from /etc/shadow, rebooted and logged in as root (I didn't give a password, it just gave me root). Surely this isn't the recommended method, or is it? (If passwd were statically linked, which BTW makes a heck of a lot of sense, security wise, I would have been able to just use passwd after rescue/ramdisk, but no, not even # LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/target/lib passwd would work.) -- <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
