I am trying to find a way to have the root user automatically logged in upon rebooting Ultra 5s and Ultra 60s with Solaris 8. Is this possible? Thanks for the help.

I don't know of a way this can be done, but doesn't cron suit your purpose, effectively giving you the option to run whatever command you want? Alternatively, you could start a daemon each time the machine boots (include the necessary command in a file in /etc/init.d and /etc/rc2.d). Hope this helps, but get back with more details if not. Cheers.
