Password Protecting Grub in RHEL 6

Grub, is the standard boot loader used by each and every Linux type operating system that I can think of. RHEL 6 uses what I guess we are now calling grub 1.o, since grub 2.0 has been released and in use by Fedora for the last few releases. You will also find that grub 2.0 has replaced grub 1.0 in RHEL 7. At some point I plan to explore grub 2 at lenght, but today is not that day (unless something strange happens before I go to bed tonight -- you never know).
