I have not worked in a single environment where the root password was
common knowledge. All environments I have worked in used personalized
sudo to escalate privileges. One even (the best one!) encouraged
people not to escalate to a root shell but type sudo for every single
command as this leaves a nice audit trail.

Doing so is considerably easier on Debianesque systems than in the Red
Hat world due to the more open directory permissions in Debian.
