Need Real Name

This was determined as not the way to do it back in 1999; I'm not sure I want to change this behavior now. So, are you saying that when the reboot malfunctions somehow and the machine boots with an /etc/nologin that the only resolution is physical access by someone with the root password? If this is the case, how do I prevent /etc/nologin from being created during the reboot process? *** Bug 78129 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** The other UNIXes have this behavior (which has been in place for decades) correct. A reboot should delete the /etc/nologin file. I'm happy to see that 8.5 years later, RHEL7 agreed with me. :) |
