    NAME
           sulogin - access	single-user mode
    
    SYNOPSIS
           sulogin
    
    
    DESCRIPTION
           The sulogin utility is automatically invoked by init when the system is
           first started. It prompts the user to type a user name and password  to
           enter  system maintenance mode (single-user mode) or to type EOF	(typi-
           cally CTRL-D) for normal	startup	(multi-user  mode).  The  user	should
           never  directly	invoke	sulogin.  The  user must have the solaris.sys-
           tem.maintenance authorization.
    
    
           The sulogin utility can prompt the user to enter	the root password on a
           variable	 number	 of  serial console devices, in	addition to the	tradi-
           tional console device. See consadm(1m) and msglog(7D) for a description
           of  how	to  configure a	serial device to display the single-user login
           prompt.
    
    FILES
           /etc/default/sulogin
    
    	   Default value can be	set for	the following flag:
    
    	   PASSREQ
    
    	       Determines if login  requires  a	 password.  Default  is	 PASS-
    	       REQ=YES.
    
    
    
           /etc/default/login
    
    	   Default value can be	set for	the following flag:
    
    	   SLEEPTIME
    
    	       If  present,  sets  the	number of seconds to wait before login
    	       failure is printed to the screen	and another login  attempt  is
    	       allowed.	Default	is 4 seconds. Minimum is 0 seconds. Maximum is
    	       5 seconds.
    
    	       Both su(1M) and login(1)	are affected by	the  value  of	SLEEP-
    	       TIME.

    NOTES
           By default, the root user has all authorizations.
    
    
           Granting	the solaris.system.maintenance authorization  to  the  Console
           User Rights Profile may have an undesirable side	effect of granting the
           currently logged	in user	 maintenance  mode  access.  The  solaris.sys-
           tem.maintenance authorization should be directly	granted	to appropriate
           users rather than through the Console User Rights Profile.
