<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para>
The <command>sulogin</command> command is invoked by <command>init</command>
prior to allowing the user access to the system when in single user mode.
This feature may only be available on certain systems where
<command>init</command> has been modified accordingly, or where the
<filename>/etc/inittab</filename> has an entry for a single user
login.
</para>
<para>The user is prompted</para>
<para>Type control-d to proceed with normal startup,
<!-- .br -->
(or give root password for system maintenance):
</para>
<para>
Input and output will be performed with the standard file descriptors
unless the optional device name argument is provided.
</para>
<para>
If the user enters the correct root password, a login session is
initiated. When <emphasis>EOF</emphasis> is pressed instead, the
system enters multi-user mode.
</para>
<para>
After the user exits the single-user shell, or presses
<emphasis>EOF</emphasis>, the system begins the initialization process
required to enter multi-user mode.
</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1 id='caveats'>
<title>CAVEATS</title>
<para>
This command can only be used if <command>init</command> has been
modified to call <command>sulogin</command> instead of
<filename>/bin/sh</filename>, or if the user has set the <emphasis
remap='I'>inittab</emphasis> to support a single user login. For
example, the line:
</para>
<para>co:s:respawn:/etc/sulogin /dev/console</para>
<para>should execute the sulogin command in single user mode.</para>
<para>
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.
