since security is not a concern, have you tried making /sbin/init setuid? or have you tried using sudo something like sudo init 3 or something? I don't have a system myself that I can test this on at the moment but I'm sure at least the sudo method would work(you can set it to not prompt for a password). the setuid method should probably work too. nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
