Neat Steve. That sounds like as good a solution as some others, especially if you use a different password than the one you use for root. Plus the encrypted password would be on the DOM, making it difficult or impossible to run a password cracker on the "/dom/shadow" file, for a lack of a better name. Not the holy grail we were looking for, but it sounds like one of the top software solutions so far. > I will check with some other Linuxheads I know and see what we can do... > Essentially we just need to create a utility to set the password.

Still very interesting. Looking forward to hearing what you come up with.
