Hello everyone,
I am using freebsd 5.2, which I have installed recently. I cannot seem to su to root while using my normal account.
All I get is a message saying "Sorry." Can anyone help?


Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Kevin Coles

Are you in the group wheel?

You can see that with the command `id`
If you are not, then you cannot su to root :-)

Cheers
