Hi,
I installed edubuntu fiesty, and later on forgot the password. In a guess,
i tried in recovery mode, and i got the shell prompt. I attempted to edit
the passwd and shadow file, and to my surprise i was able to update it.
Then later on i rebooted and logged in normal way.
now i am wondering, that the security of the system would be compromised.
is ubuntu devised in such a way? Or is there any other way to protect the
system?
Regards,
Senthil Raja
