I had a user call about a user supported system that was having issues. We explicitly do not support it and the users only use the root account. He gave me the root account to login and I couldn't. I went to his system & looked around. /etc was empty. I told him he was fsked and he should ftp any files he wanted to elsewhere & that he wouldn't be able to login again or reboot. In any event, we were not supporting it. Sure enough, a help desk ticket came in for another admin, claiming that the system got corrupted during bootup. Why do users lie so often? All it does is obscure the problem...
