RE: [Security Firewall] Re: Logging as root

[Mitchell, Neill]

This is my point. It is being discussed a lot which means a lot of people are encountering the problem. I think the install process needs to do a bit more hand holding so you know what to expect.   Cheers.   -----Original Message----- From: Jim [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 07 March 2005 12:58 To: security-firewall@linux-mandrake.com Subject: RE: [Security Firewall] Re: Logging as root   This has been covered a LOT in the past and although Neill stated that you cannot SU as admin, read Florin's posts in the archives. IOW, search the archives.   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Nicolas MOREAU Sent: Monday, March 07, 2005 7:40 AM To: security-firewall@linux-mandrake.com Subject: [Security Firewall] Re: Logging as root     I tryed the "su" command with the same result. I don't have the problem with MNF1: loggin as admin then with "su" i can open my concole as root. But with MNF2 when i try "su" the shell return a "wrong password" message. However, in failsafe mode I can logging as admin then with "su" logging as root.     On Mon, 7 Mar 2005 11:48:06 +0100, Nicolas MOREAU <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > I have a problem with my MNF2 beta: I can't loggin as root, just with > my admin account. > It works fine in failsafe mode but not in normal mode. > Is anybody could help me? >             _____________________________________________________________________ This message has been checked for all known viruses by Minuco delivered through the MessageLabs Virus Scanning Service.
