Hi there,

Is there an easy way of re-inserting, or copying the backup passwd file
I have without physical access to the box?
I can ssh into it, but only as a regular user - obviously I can't su to
root as it doesn't exist anymore :-)
Sorry, I didn't read the original email properly, and missed the bit
about not having physical access to the machine.
