This is not really a restriction... it's just Ubuntu's way of letting novices to do root-ish things every so often (without encouraging them to log in as root). I'm like you, I can't stand it. So the first thing I do on a Ubuntu system is "sudo bash" and then "passwd root". Then it'll be just like what you were expecting, more like Debian, Red Hat, etc. Alan . -- TriLUG mailing list : http://www.trilug.org/mailman/listinfo/trilug TriLUG Organizational FAQ : http://trilug.org/faq/ TriLUG Member Services FAQ : http://members.trilug.org/services_faq/ TriLUG PGP Keyring : http://trilug.org/~chrish/trilug.asc
