    Hi All

    I'm administering a mid-size serverhosting site and have a problem with
    customers enabling root passwd in single-user mode.
    It's the same customers that set up fake payment sites, do serious
    hacking (i.e. not good, productive hacking) mailspamming and so on.

    In order to collect information for a criminal case (yes, in some cases
    we go all the way) I need a way to get into these boxes (mostly
    FreeBSD's) but I can't think of a way to disable the prompt for root
    passwd in single-user mode.
    Know it's a wildcard, but I've been looking at 'set' options under
    'boot' and a way to mount the serverdisk on another fbsd installation,
    but without any luck.

    Any help would be appreciatet. Thank you.

    respectfully
