But sufficient for administration tasks in maintenance mode. It's not that you spend hours of dialog sessions in SUM. Remember: It's a worst case scenario.

But it's the system's standard scripting shell, and sufficient for recovering a defective system. > And I said if you know what you're doing.

That's a completely valid solution - better than just chsh and then trouble. :-) -- Polytropon >From Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
