Hello,
 
We have systems installed with all subsets and configured with Base Security
(4.0D, 4.0G, 5.0A).
 
Somebody has run the "authck -p -v" command and has got the message "root
has no password" ; but the root account really has a password !
 
I answered that the authck command belongs to the Enhanced Security; and as
this is not configured, the message doesn't give trouble to me, but to my
boss !
 
Please tell me if something is wrong in my systems (= do I take a big risk)
or if the message is coherent.
 
Rene-Pierre Bonvin
 
PS : it's NOT planned to configure Enhanced Security now.
