hello friends i already test it. there is no risk at all. i just change some on gdm.conf file. the changes are *AllowRoot=false to **AllowRoot=ture. its w*orks fine. after that you can login every time with root.
i agree with you lenin vai. but having some problem. actually i install lammp on /opt directory. because i can't run lammp by install it other dir. but when i install it on /opt/lammp then i can't save files on this directory with normal user sessions. friends need suggestion on this matter. thank you everyone for reading my problem and show me the way. ---------------------------------------------- Regards, saeed rajshahi http://saeed05.wordpress.com http://twitter.com/saeed05 ---------------------------------------------- On Thu, Aug 13, 2009 at 1:46 PM, Lenin <[email protected]> wrote: > On Thu, Aug 13, 2009 at 6:06 AM, shiplu <[email protected]> wrote: > > > On Thu, Aug 13, 2009 at 5:07 AM, saeed ahmed<[email protected]> wrote: > > > hello friends, > > > > > > by default login as root is disable on ubuntu. but it can be access by > > some > > > changes on *gdm.conf file. also using this **** gksudo nautilus and > sudo > > easily > > > can browse the files as root user. so what is the preferable method? > > > > > sudo nautilus is not like root login.
