read my lips: con sole ser ver
;-) on a dedicated internal administration network is this the stuff
that saves you time.
ah, ... and, yes, we use a network also to update the machines ;> but
not with nfs mounting /usr/src. best choice is you write a little
setup-automagic script for single user mode and place it under /root
decrementing securelevel is evil.
doing things in userland which can turn off security features is evil.
securelevel is your friend.
