Re: single user mode - changing root passwd

Shasi,
/etc/nsswitch.conf can tell your system how to authenticate users.
SEP is ok here. some misunderstanding is there.
in /etc/nsswitch.conf what ever order u will defines it goes there 1st. means for passwd if "files ldap" is defined it will go to /etc/passwd first then ldap. if user is there in /etc/passwd it will not search to ldap.
It's kind of fun to do the impossible
