Philo, if you want to log in through GNOME as the "root" user, go to either of these two web sites in a web browser: http://www.comp-sos.com/index.php/review/operating-systems/42-unix/80-install-azureus-open-solaris-200805
http://www.blastwave.org/dclarke/blog/?q=node/110 and follow the instructions and you'll find a part where it will show you how to enable root login by changing the RBAC configuration files. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
