This feature may only be available on certain systems where -\fBinit\fR -has been modified accordingly, or where the -/etc/inittab -has an entry for a single user login\&. -.PP -The user is prompted -.PP -Type control\-d to proceed with normal startup, -(or give root password for system maintenance): -.PP -Input and output will be performed with the standard file descriptors unless the optional device name argument is provided\&. -.PP -If the user enters the correct root password, a login session is initiated\&. When -\fIEOF\fR -is pressed instead, the system enters multi\-user mode\&. -.PP -After the user exits the single\-user shell, or presses -\fIEOF\fR, the system begins the initialization process required to enter multi\-user mode\&. -.SH "CAVEATS" -.PP -This command can only be used if -\fBinit\fR -has been modified to call -\fBsulogin\fR -instead of -/bin/sh, or if the user has set the -\fIinittab\fR -to support a single user login\&. For example, the line: -.PP -co:s:respawn:/etc/sulogin /dev/console -.PP -should execute the sulogin command in single user mode\&. -.PP -As complete an environment as possible is created\&. However, various devices may be unmounted or uninitialized and many of the user commands may be unavailable or nonfunctional as a result\&. -.SH "CONFIGURATION" -.PP -The following configuration variables in -/etc/login\&.defs -change the behavior of this tool: -.PP -\fBENV_HZ\fR (string) -.RS 4 -If set, it will be used to define the HZ environment variable when a user login\&. The value must be preceded by -\fIHZ=\fR\&. A common value on Linux is -\fIHZ=100\fR\&. -.RE -.PP -\fBENV_TZ\fR (string) -.RS 4 -If set, it will be used to define the TZ environment variable when a user login\&. The value can be the name of a timezone preceded by -\fITZ=\fR -(for example -\fITZ=CST6CDT\fR), or the full path to the file containing the timezone specification (for example -/etc/tzname)\&. -.sp -If a full path is specified but the file does not exist or cannot be read, the default is to use -\fITZ=CST6CDT\fR\&. -.RE -.SH "FILES" -.PP -/etc/passwd -.RS 4 -User account information\&. -.RE -.PP -/etc/shadow -.RS 4 -Secure user account information\&. -.RE -.SH "SEE ALSO" -.PP - -\fBlogin\fR(1), -\fBsh\fR(1), -\fBinit\fR(8)\&. |
