Subject: RH7.2: init 1 no password?
Date: Sun, 19 May 2002 13:35:40 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200205191335.AA14942500@wcox.com> (raw)

I would hope this issue has been raised before?
But when I bring by Redhat7.2 box down to single user mode (shutdown or init 1) it puts me a
root shell without asking for a password? Which
seems likes a bit of a security problem to me?

Can I change this situation? Does anyone of anyother
Unix flavor that does this?

TIA,
David
