| rootirc | <reply> It's not technically our business, but we'd like to tell you that IRC'ing as root is a Very Bad Idea (tm). After all, doing anything as root when root is not needed is bad, and especially bad with software that connects to the Internet. | Added by LjL Date: 2007-09-21 17:20:07 Last edited by LjL Date: 2007-09-25 18:04:50 Requested 615 times |
| root | <reply> Do not try to guess the root password, that is impossible. Instead, realise the truth... there is no root password. Then you will see that it is 'sudo' that grants you access and not the root password.
