On a related note, is there an option to disable root logins via lshd? There isn't a lot of information on how to configure lshd, and my goal of adding a user is so that I can login with a user account, and su to root.
For those who don't wish to follow the link.
====================
As a final note, the user will not be able to change their password unless you allow the passwd utility to inherit root privileges. To do this, use the chmod command:
chmod 4755 /usr/bin/passwd
And backup root.lrp to save the change.
WARNING: In most LRP derivatives, /usr/bin/passwd is really a link to /bin/tinylogin, which provides executable binary functions for getty, sulogin, login, su, and more. If the permissions are changed on /bin/passwd, then they are changed on /bin/login as well - and on all the others. Think seriously about security before you do this!
The most recent version of tinylogin from CVS (0.80pre) will drop excess rights, so it should work without problems.

Appreciate any comments/knowledge anyone might have,
