Usually, the above means just delete the character between the first and second colon.

login: root<cr>
no password required

You can do the above with telnet/vi (or whatever editor is on a K1).
So apparently that exclamation mark between the first two colons disabled the account?

Except I need a password if I am going to be using SSH over wifi, right? Or can that be an empty password as well? In any case, it is now my "fiona" password...
