    Howdy folks,

    Is there any difference or benefit to changing the root password via booting with install DVD and using Utilities > Reset Password… vs. booting SUM and issuing:

    [code]mount -uw /; sh /etc/rc; passwd[/code]
    ?

    Thanks!!

    Thanks for the reply Mr. MacTroll. The sh /etc/rc command failed in SUM – no such directory. Oh well 😕
