[-- Attachment #1 --] Referencing the FreeBSD handbook for v3.2 page 201. I needed to use the procedure to get into single user mode and change the root password. The only problem that I had was that I had to inform the system which kernel to use before it would take me into single user mode. Did I do something incorrect? If so, please advise so that I may update my documentation... Below is the synatx that I had to use: boot -s kernel Thanks for a great product.... Cheers, Vaughn E.
