Is there a way to authenticate as root while running BBEdit so I can search those files using BBEdit's interface?

When I'm logged in as a non-admin user and I try to open /var/log/ system.log with BBEdit on my machine, BBEdit prompts me for an admin username and password. This seems to work whether I open system.log from the Finder or from Terminal using the /usr/bin/bbedit tool.

Does this not work for you, or am I missing something here?

Yeah, he's trying to do it on his remote server.

(I've never gotten this to work either, I just use vim via ssh)
