The only way is if they were chown'ed by someone logged in as root or a script running as root. > I don't recall what > the root password is either man I'm in bad shape. How can I recover the > root password ? It that possible ? The pwd for root is the same as for admin unless you logged in via the shell as root and ran "passwd" and updated it. Since you don't recall logging in as root that's doubtful unless someone else did. Unless you modified a Cobalt script, changing the admin password via the GUI will also change root's password to the same password. If none of this works there are other options, but I won't waste your time or mine unless these suggestions fail. -- Steve Werby President, Befriend Internet Services LLC http://www.befriend.com/ _______________________________________________ cobalt-developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://list.cobalt.com/mailman/listinfo/cobalt-developers
