Logon as your normal user, and then issue sudo su - When prompted for password, issue the same password you used to logon as your normal user. When complete you will be root user.
Ubuntu doesn't allow you to logon as a root user by default, and forces you to use sudo to get root access Any user in admin group can use sudo to obtain root access or run commands as root. Thanks On 6/16/06, Gerald <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
