TruGurus,
What would be the implications of adding an account local to one machine
( /etc/passwd ) that has root's uid & gid, a root2 if you will?
I'm trying to get around a problem of samba's swat not allowing root
login and login as root2 works. I have root2 at the end of passwd just
before the NIS entry.
Nothing listed with ls is owned by root2, but a find for -user root2
will get hits on all root owned files. Neither one of these surprise me,
but I don't know much about the inner workings of uid related stuff and
what else may be affected.
Thanks
