How to login root from normal user without password
 
Hi All,
Actually while using I have switch users several time. Is there any way to login root without password.

Nearly identical question from two users in rapid succession...

My guess is test question...

Unless it's a anti-security 101 test, why would any test ask how to login as root without a password though? It's just...a HORRIBLE idea to do on anything that isn't isolated completely from being able to be touched physically or by network...

Ok.. Not for all users... Is it possible for perticular users

ssh-copy-id might work for you.

log in as root without the root password on redhat ....
NO

bypass the login ? yes

boot into rescue mode / single user

but more that that is for different web sites
