Greetings,

I administer a DECstation3100, and I believe I inherited
the job with a slight security hole.  If the DECstation
goes down, it goes to single-user mode and sits there,
without prompting for superuser password or trying to 
get into multi-user mode.  

My administrative knowledge is not extremely extensive,
as you can tell.  Can anyone suggest a way to fix this
so that the machine either prompts for su password or
goes to multi-user mode.

Thanks in advance,
Andrew.
