[cobalt-users] Suspending servers

["The Thieving Gypsy" <webmaster@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi list,

I need to suspend the server of one of my clients.  The problem is, I want
to leave them with limited access - simply unplugging the server would cause
all sorts of bother over lost emails, etc. I plan on stopping the httpd and
admserv daemons, and then suspending their telnet accounts, but am not quite
sure whta th implications are...  My client has access to the admin password
(and therefore the root) account, but I have set up another root account for
my use.  My question is, which of the clients accounts should I suspend -
the admin account, or the root account?  What would the implications be of
suspending the admin account if, for example the server crashed?  Also,
could suspending the root account have nasty repercussions?

Thanks in advance,
