Here's question oozing with newbieness, but I'm still convinced this is the correct list.
Does this code from src/sbin/init/init.c preclude renaming of the root account ? /* * Establish an initial user so that programs running * single user do not freak out and die (like passwd). */ if (setlogin("root") < 0) warning("setlogin() failed: %m"); If so, wouldn't it be an idea to call getpwnam on uid 0 ? I don't even know C all that well, so flame on if this is obvious, but if you could indicate why at the same time it would be nice ;) Thanks, Ceri -- keep a mild groove on To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
