Here is my question:

Is there any reason why  I should not have root login shell 
dynamically link.?

And the answer with a lots of thanks goes to the following people:

Paul Wilkinson [Paul_Wilkinson@utsglobal.com]
Bertrand_Hutin@notes.amdahl.com
Hindley Nick [nick.hindley@lbhf.gov.uk]
Hendrik Visage [hvisage@is.co.za]
ed.rolison@power.alstom.com
Rodney Wines [Rodney.Wines@ahqps.alcatel.fr]

The reason why one should not have root login shell dynamically link is that
if for
any reason I have file system "/usr" mounted on a separate partition and it
can not
be mounted at boot time then I will not be able to login onto system.

Thanks again,
German
