Taking the risk of being OT slightly to this thread -- is is _NOT_ at all
possible to log in as root thru remote access, perhaps with telnet/ssh/scp
etc. ? With even changing the permissions, etc. ?
I think I've known a few admins, who have their servers colo'd in some high
bandwidth service provider, while they're managing the software part for
provinding services such as hosting/appl services etc. from a remote
location ..that's possible, isn't it ?
