fyi, to put suns in secure mode, (for desktop sparc models) $su #eeprom security-mode=command Password: Retype password: # (for other models) $su #eeprom secure=command Password: Retype password: # This stops access to the new command mode. Really, though, if you have a non-secured console, you can always just do a "b -s" and it will put you into single user (suid 0) mode after rebooting. [for the more paranoid, you can replace "command" with "full", but ive found this more hindersome to legit tasks than mandated by security issues. (ie, in full mode you cant remotely reboot as you need to locally input a prom password on startup) - dan
