But it shouldn't be this way.  :)  For example, a BAD guy with physical
access to the box can unplug your cables, maybe connect your V.35 port to
a sniffer device, pull the power cord out, install external ethernet
sniffers, do all kinds of bad things.  But the legitimate owner cannot
reset the root password?  It is suboptimal. :)
