My RH9 system now says that the root account has expired. Maybe it was
because I used "date" to reset system time. Maybe it was because I
changed the root shell from bash to tcsh. Anyway, now I am in a
catch-22 (See http://tch-22.ora-code.com) situation of not being able to log in as root to fix a problem
that only root can fix. Can anyone offer a remedy? Thanks.
