That you stated that the root account was hardly locked if I can sudo su |
| 31 |
into it. If you take me as truthful, then you can see that I have done |
| 32 |
exactly that: locked the account and sudo su'ed into it. I think you |
| 33 |
already knew that was possible, so I am countering the semantics of the |
| 34 |
issue. |
