Please su backuppc first > su -l /bin/sh backuppc su: unknown login: /bin/sh This is telling you that you don't have a user named "/bin/sh." Frankly, you probably don't, it's probably better to use the backuppc user. su - backuppc should be sufficient. > [c0mputerking@miako /usr/ports/shells/bash]# su -l /usr/local/bin/bash > backuppc > su: username too long > [c0mputerking@miako /usr/ports/shells/bash]# su -s /usr/local/bin/bash > backuppc > su: username too long Unsurprisingly, the username "/use/local/bin/bash" is too long, but you probably don't have a user named that anyway. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ WhatsUp Gold - Download Free Network Management Software The most intuitive, comprehensive, and cost-effective network management toolset available today.
