Instead, when required to edit a configuration file, or do something not planned under sudo, then what I do is to "su" and then provide the root password. The problem is that the root password is never recognized, so I can't su-to-root ever, from a non root user... This is what I always see: % su Password: <root_password> su: incorrect password % su root Password: <root_password> su: incorrect password Is this known already? Try sudo su -This sounds particularly unconfortable under X, since it's supposed to be unsecure to start X under root. Is there a work around, :) ? -- Vincent |
