This is one of those things where after you realize what you've done, you just want to smack yourself.
I've been working on hardening my FreeBSD 6.2-Stable box. I disabled root login from everywhere, including the console (The box isn't physically secure, so I didn't want anyone screwing around). Now, me being stupid, didn't reboot after making all these changes to harden it. So I finally rebooted (With the secure level set to 2) and I found that I can't run "su." I get the following error: $ su - su: not running setuid I can't shutdown since I can't become root, so I pulled the plug and rebooted into single-user mode. I edited /etc/rc.conf and set kern_securelevel_enable="NO" I rebooted again, but for some reason I still get the same error for "su." So basically, I locked myself out of my box completely. I fail :-( su has the following permissions: -r-sr-xr-x 1 root wheel schg 12240 May 13 13:15 su And sudo isn't installed, unfortunately. Any ideas of how to get root back?
