Single User Mode password on a non-Trusted Configuration

I'd like to know if there is a way to set a single user mode password without converting the HP-UX server into Trusted Mode.

Hi,

I believe you can do this with kerberos,

I think the last version of Bastille also automated this task.

You can protect single user mode without makeing the system trusted.

If you are interested in security(sounds like it) you probably want to think about this product anyway.
