Are you using the final released version of 9.0? Reason I ask is that I saw this behaviour in one of the beta releases and reported it on Mandrake Cooker. I have not seen it in the final release.
BTW: Have you tried it in KDE? The mechanism is slightly different and the prompt window is not the same. derek On Tuesday 19 Nov 2002 5:56 am, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > rpmdrake, as well as any program that requires root privileges > (drakconf,..), when invoked from the menu in Gnome opens a little window > for the root passwd.
