By no password, do you mean:
- it is impossible to log in as root with a password (a good thing, I'd think, as people should be using sudo), or
- it's possible to log in as root without any authentication (a bad thing, obviously)?
- nerdponx 6y agoI recall that by default it is impossible, and you are expected to use 'sudo'. Of course that means you can also use 'sudo su'.
