Hi, To set password for single usermode in FreeBSD: * 1.Edit /etc/ttys* vi /etc/ttys * 2.Change the following line *: *From* console none unknown off secure > *To* console none unknown off insecure > *3.Save and quit editor(vi)* Reboot the box and boot into single user mode, if you wanna test it. By the way, the keyword "insecure" imply to the console is insecure and thus required root password to be authenticated before single user mode can be access. It DOES NOT mean that the console is run insecurely. Take note. On Sat, Dec 11, 2010 at 11:02 PM, K.
