At my interview for Broadwing, it helped that half the staff used
sunhelp.org on a regular basis.. Then in the interview, my boss (who
was an ex-admin himself, having been booted up to management) asked
"okay, how would you go about getting into a system where the root
password had been lost?"

I laughed.  Then told him how to do it (boot off cdrom, etc).

Its the most commonly asked question to questions at sunhelp.org. 8-)
