Re: default password of toor
what is the default password of toor cause i have forgotton my roots password so any one could help me in recovering ? There is no default password for the toor account. It is just an account with another name that has root's UID (0). You can create one for yourself with any name you want and just give it a UID of 0. But, if you have forgotten your root password, you will have to do a single user boot (boot -s), fsck and remount / and then set a password for root (or toor or your personal root account). NOTE: you will have to give toor a real shell if you want to use it for a login. You will need to have a root login or be in single user mode for doing that. Use vipw(8) to do that. jerry ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

By default the toor account cannot be logged into via password. Try booting into single-user-mode to change your root password. pgpaACma98B10.pgp Description: PGP signature
Re: default password of toor
reboot at boot prompt type boot -senter will boot in single user mode at prompt type mount -a then if / is mounted read only, perhaps mount -u -rw / passwd root type in new password CTL-D Alternately, you can boot from a cd mount and chroot to your os / passwd root etc...
