I gave my root password to a good friend of mine who I brought into
this company a long time ago. We went to college together. We worked
together for years. He was one of the best engineers I've ever had
the pleasure to work with.
We were both completely clear as to what was and what was not
acceptable to do with these passwords. In the end, about the only
thing we ever did was shut down each other's machines in the event
that the other person wasn't in when the power was scheduled to go out
over the weekend.
I'm telling you right now, if you call into question the
trustworthiness of my friend, I'm going to be insulted.
