Maintain a single local user account that is assigned the root role. Give that user a ridiculously long password, kept in escrow by your IS Security department. Now you have a guaranteed path in via the console when everything else goes to pot. -- Georgia: Why am I not doing what they're doing? Rube: Because you're doing what you're doing.
