Re: Fwd: [cobalt-users] shell commands as root



On Mon, 23 Jul 2001 11:00:44 +1200, Gerald Young mumbled something 
like:
>>cp /somewheresafe/inetd.conf    /etc/inted.conf
>>/usr/bin/killall -HUP inetd

How did it copy over the original /etc/inetd.conf; as the original is 
owned by root and you'd have to be root in order to replace the file?

It's a fantastic idea for when you're locked out, but I'm not quite
understanding how it's working without root access.

Thanks for your quotes!
I'm now trying to find a way to randomize them automagically so I can 
use them all...
