After upgrading from RH5.2 to RH6.0 I can't login any more. Previously
I was using no password on root, done by deleting the password info in
/etc/passwd (not good security but its a stand alone for playing
with). Now after the upgrade, it asks for a password, and won't accept
anything I type in.

Thanks in advance
John
