Uhh.. [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ id uid=501(tjcarter) gid=501(tjcarter) groups=501(tjcarter), 81(appserveradm), 79(appserverusr), 80(admin) That's not root. I can sudo, and I can make root a valid login account, but my single user isn't root. I have no idea what you're doing to get root permissions when you copy a file over, but it ain't MacOS X's fault the file is read-only other than for root when you do it. _______________________________________________ EUGLUG mailing list [email protected] http://www.euglug.org/mailman/listinfo/euglug
