If you ssh into the box, do you experience the same behavior? If you login as a normal user and then 'su', do you experience the same behavior? -----Original Message----- From: fedora-list-admin@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-list-admin@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Bill Beeman Sent: Thursday, January 08, 2004 8:16 PM To: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Blank password works for root I just discovered that I can log into my FC1 box as root with either the root password, or by simply leaving the password blank! Functions this way from a command line, or in a terminal within either KDE or Gnome. Can anyone suggest where to look to stop this behavior. This was a RH9 box upgraded to FC1, and has all current patches applied. Thanks.
