Dear Kapil,

you have written a reply for muskan's problem in which root forgets his password...

(ur mail is below). in this manner any person will reboot the sytem and via lilo prompt  he will get a system without password and can change password..as u have written..

so anyone can become root...in this situation what will happen to security of linux system ..

i think you can understand what i want to say...?

please clarify it.

thanks

Muskan reboot your linux, on the lilo prompt type linux single. You will get

The change your password using passwd command.
