[SunHELP] unlocking the system by user

[Kevin Reichhart]

the only way around this is to move root2 to the top of the passwd file so
that the machine finds it before the actual root entry.  the problem then is
that if the display is locked by root, you'll have to enter the root2
password to unlock it.
