To What files root does not have access to??
Hi,
I just wanted to know to what files root does not have access, not even read....I read that .profile for any user is the only file which root cannot access is it true..??...If we have to use passwords and ID's in a script can we use them in .profile and call them as parameters..??? Thanks, Girinath

You can in fact use passwords and IDs in a script as you suggest, but I would highly discourage it. There is always the possibility that the wrong person will be able to obtain access to that information if it's stored in that manner.
