Hello,



I suppose most of you know of the way to go back into Console mode (at the login window use >console as the user and nothing as the password). I was wondering how I could make my iBook boot straight into that "user".



Also how can I view all the users on my system? Like the daemon, www, root and all the other users that unix has. In RedHat/KDE I could see them all, but I don't know how to see them here.



I've search the core using apropos/whatis and man and other... but I just can't find anywhere that displays the all the hidden users and/or determines the auto-login of MacOSX...



Btw... I'm using 10.2.5... oviously



Thank you for your help.

    Command + S at startup.

    Hey thank you guys. I forgot about NetInfo.

    Ok. Oh and I know Cmd+S the single mode boot. Except that that boots only into root user... or maybe not if I run login...



    Doesn't matter. Thanks again
