Re: Automatic password changing

  We had this happen in our school, and after that we added a second
  user with uid = 0.  Also, we could have used sudo, so that a
  semi-priviledged-user could sudo to root and then change root's
  password.

  You will of course have to guard that password very well, as it
  might give instant root.. :)

  I find this a better solution than autochanging passwords.
