I finally registered myself Biggrin
I have some question to ask because i don't understand this tut.

1) Do you already have the root access on the machine? to create 2 user account i think you must have the password of root
2) when is better to use this tut? in what context?
3) why not simply ssh simpleuser@machine and than su root? To create user and change /etc/* files i think that you own or you have all access to that machine.
4) why not simply add nohbdy_root to root group ?
thats all folks Biggrin

1. Yeah. This can be used when you have a root exploit of sorts.
2. When you want your root access to be relatively invisible.
3. What if you don't know the root password?
4. Because nohbdy_root needs uid=0 else it can't do root things.
FART BUBBLES!
