Re: Controlling root access

Outside of NetInfo Manager, how many other ways can root access be enabled and disabled on a client system without booting into single- user mode and then monkeying with the NetInfo database via CLI?

Hey Tan,

I think that passwd in the terminal is the other easy way. I guess you could use nicl as well to set a password. Both of these require sudo rights to start with.
