funny customers

[Per Engelbrecht]

Hi All

I'm administering a mid-size serverhosting site and have a problem with
customers enabling root passwd in single-user mode.
It's the same customers that set up fake payment sites, do serious
hacking  (i.e. not good, productive hacking) mailspamming and so on.

In order to collect information for a criminal case (yes, in some cases
we go all the way) I need a way to get into these boxes (mostly
FreeBSD's) but I can't think of a way to disable the prompt for root
passwd in single-user mode.
Know it's a wildcard, but I've been looking at 'set' options under
'boot'  and a way to mount the serverdisk on another fbsd installation,
but without any luck.

Any help would be appreciatet. Thank you.
