We charge anywhere from $25 to $100 (depending on speed) to walk you through the process of cracking the root password.

Unless the installer was a paranoid freak or a genius, all you need is physical access to the server with Monitor/Keyboard. It has changed over the years, with some of the OSs modifing their boot sequencing.
