You may have no security problems with it but you have potential major hardware problems with it.
Is there a sysadmin that is keeping you out? What you are needing is a breakin of the system and that is a questionable tactic for the forum.
One solution is to log on once and run from the shell prompt, but if idleout is enabled like it shoud be then this will fail.
