Sorry, not in SCO-UNIX. When I login next, I'm asked for a password.
The only (obscure) thing possible with SCO-UNIX is a password of length
zero, e.m. you only have to press <enter> when you are asked for the
password.

My question: If I do _not_ want C2 but an account without password in
SCO-UNIX, how can I get this ?
