Description pahe+redhat-bugzilla 1999-05-25 03:23:40 UTC 
It is not possible to log in with a blank password.

This is problem if you forget the root password, boot
into single user mode and reset the password.

I do not use shadow passwords.

It seems as if the nullok option from pam_pwdb is ignored.
