Good job kid.  Now what's your password?  We need that for our records?  Oh
yeah, and ip address.

Thanks everyone.  I tried a couple things and what I ended up doing was
booting from the CD into rescue mode then editing the
/mnt/sysimage/etc/shadow password, then rebooting and creating a new root
pw.

Thanks everyone!

Greg
