Anybody have seen two passwords working for the root user in a server to
access with ssh.
Is it possible to have multiple passwords for a user in any system. please
guide me.
I believe, what you are looking for is sudo. Check out the following
manual pages,
man sudo
man sudoers
See EXAMPLES section to get a quick idea. As the name goes, if
authorized, any user can gain superuser privileges through sudo. So, in
effect, two or more users can login as root using their own passwords.
