I don't think you can, most are setup to not allow root login. You can start a shell and do "sudo su" to have a root shell. And there is a "add a root shell" in the "add panel" section. You may have to fire up Alacarte to get access. Being root as a general idea is a really bad things, one of the things that Unix/Linux/OS-X do right and Windows does wrong. Usually, a better solution is to make sure that the file protections are setup properly. I read these forums using email, and I've lost the start of this thread. What are you trying to do, again?
